We report on the current status of the NuMI beamline monitoring simulation and data analysis efforts.
The Mu2e Experiment reconstructs particle events with helical trajectories in the detector region using raw measurements primarily from the straw tracker and crystal calorimeter. In Mu2e, there are currently two algorithms that are used for reconstruction: one which seeds helix searches using calorimeter data and one which only uses tracker data to search for helices. Both algorithms perform...
The discrepancy between the Standard Model prediction and experimental measurement of the muon magnetic moment anomaly, $\alpha_\mu=(𝑔_\mu−2)/2$, is connected to precision electroweak (EW) measurements via their common dependence on hadronic vacuum polarization effects. The same data for the total $e^+e^-\rightarrow$ hadrons cross section, $\sigma_had(𝑠)$, are used as input into dispersion...
