The course will discuss particle and nuclear physics with muons, including:
- Precsion measurements using muons: The muon lifetime
- Tests of the weak interaction: Muon decay parameters
- Searches for lepton flavour violation using muons
- Muonic X-rays as a tool for studying nuclei
We will look at original research literature and many ongoing experiments and discuss
- What is a good motivation for an experiment
- What drives the design of an experiment
- How do I interpret and evaluate results of an experiment
The lecture will take place using the big blue button video conference system, at
