Muon-Muon and Other High Energy Colliders [PDF]
Parameters are given of 4 TeV and 0.5 TeV (c-of-m) high luminosity muon-muon Colliders. We discuss the various systems, starting from the proton accelerator needed to generate the muons and proceeding through muon cooling, acceleartion and storage in a collider ring. Detector background, polarization are analyzed.

Excited muon production at muon colliders via contact interaction [PDF]
In recent years, with the enlightenment of some issues encountered at muon colliders, muon colliders have become more feasible for the high-energy physics community. For this reason, we studied single production of excited muon at muon colliders via contact interaction.

Low emittance muon beam in the 2 to 40 GeV energy range for muon and neutrino experiments [PDF]
I present a scheme to obtain a 2 to 40 GeV low emittance muon beam, not requiring cooling and within today's technological resources, to be used for early commissioning of muon accelerator projects, or alternatively dedicated muon and neutrino parameter measurements. In particular, a muon rate of 5x10^4 mu/s in a normalized transverse emittance of 5 um

Status of the MUonE experiment [PDF]
AbstractThe MUonE experiment has been proposed to measure the differential cross section ofμe elastic scattering, by colliding the 160 GeV muons of the CERN M2 beam with atomic electrons of thin target plates. From a very precise measurement of the shape one can achieve a competitive determination of the leading hadronic contribution to the muon ...

Reconstructing muons at a Muon Collider
A Muon Collider represents a promising proposal for the future of particle accelerators. Lepton colliders, indeed, allow to probe much higher energy scales than hadrons with higher precision; in addition, the usage of muons guarantees a much lower level of synchrotron radiation than the electron case.

Bright muon beams and muon colliders
Muon collider (MC) technology must overcome several significant challenges to reach the maturity of electron-positron colliders. An increased level of R&D effort is justified at the current time, because the muon collider promises an alternative path toward high-energy, high-luminosity lepton collisions that extends beyond the expected reach of ...

Muon-Pair Production by Atmospheric Muons in CosmoALEPH [PDF]
Data from a dedicated cosmic ray run of the ALEPH detector were used in a study of muon trident production, i.e., muon pairs produced by muons. Here the overburden and the calorimeters are the target materials while the ALEPH time projection chamber provides the momentum measurements. A theoretical estimate of the muon trident cross section is obtained

The IceCube detector allows for the first time a measurement of atmospheric muon and neutrino energy spectra from tens of GeV up to the PeV range. The lepton flux in the highest energy region depends on both the primary cosmic ray composition around the "knee" and the contribution from prompt decays of mostly charmed hadrons produced in air showers. It
