Physics with a Millimole of Muons [PDF]
The eventual prospect of muon colliders reaching several TeV encourages us to consider the experimental opportunities presented by very copious stores of muons, approaching $10^{21}$ per year. I summarize and comment upon some highlights of the Fermilab Workshop on Physics at the First Muon Collider and at the Front End of a Muon Collider.

Electrons and X-rays to Muon Pairs (EXMP) [PDF]
One of the challenges of future muon colliders involves the production of muon beams carrying high phase space densities. In particular, the muon beam normalised transverse emittance is a relevant figure of merit used to meet luminosity requests.

Unveiling nodeless unconventional superconductivity proximate to honeycomb-vacancy ordering in the Ir-Sb binary system [PDF]
Vacancies in solid-state physics are underexplored in materials with strong electron-electron correlations. Recent research on the Ir-Sb binary system revealed an extended buckled-honeycomb vacancy (BHV) order. Superconductivity arises by suppressing BHV

High Luminosity Muon Collider Design [PDF]
Muon Colliders have unique technical and physics advantages and disadvantages when compared with both hadrons and electron machines. They should be regarded as complementary. Parameters are given of a 4 TeV high luminosity muon-muon collider, and of a 0.5 TeV demonstration machine. We discuss the various systems in such muon collider.

Muon simulation codes MUSIC and MUSUN for underground physics [PDF]
The paper describes two Monte Carlo codes dedicated to muon simulations: MUSIC (MUon SImulation Code) and MUSUN (MUon Simulations UNderground). MUSIC is a package for muon transport through matter. It is particularly useful for propagating muons through large thickness of rock or water, for instance from the surface down to underground/underwater ...

Depth-dependent study of time-reversal symmetry-breaking in the kagome superconductor AV3Sb5 [PDF]
The breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS) in the normal state of kagome superconductors AV3Sb5 stands out as a significant feature, but its tunability is unexplored.

Muon Performance in the Presence of High Pile-up in ATLAS [PDF]
In 2012, the LHC is operated at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV in a mode leading up to 40 inelastic pp collisions per bunch crossing. The identification and reconstruction of muons produced in hard collisions is difficult in this challenging environment. Di-muon decays of Z bosons have been used to study the muon momentum resolution as well as the muon identification

Microscopic probing of the superconducting and normal state properties of Ta2V3.1Si0.9 by muon spin rotation [PDF]
The two-dimensional kagome lattice is an experimental playground for novel physical phenomena, from frustrated magnetism and topological matter to chiral charge order and unconventional superconductivity.

Kitaev interactions through extended superexchange pathways in the $${j}_{{\mathsf{eff}}}=1/2$$ j eff = 1 / 2 Ru3+ honeycomb magnet RuP3SiO11 [PDF]
Magnetic materials are composed of the simple building blocks of magnetic moments on a crystal lattice that interact via magnetic exchange. Yet from this simplicity emerges a remarkable diversity of magnetic states.

Delivering the world’s most intense muon beam [PDF]
A new muon beam line, the muon science innovative channel, was set up at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics, Osaka University, in Osaka, Japan, using the 392 MeV proton beam impinging on a target. The production of an intense muon beam relies on the
