New Physics Potential with a Neutrino Telescope [PDF]
Active Galactic Nuclei are considered as sources of neutrinos, with neutrino energies extending up to 10^{18} eV. It is expected that these highly energetic cosmic neutrinos will be detected by the neutrino telescopes, presently under construction.

Underground Muon Physics with the MACRO experiment [PDF]
Underground muon events detected by the MACRO experiment at Gran Sasso have been studied for different purposes. The studies include the vertical muon intensity measurement, multiplicity distribution, lateral and angular muon distribution and searches ...

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.

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.

Muon Spectra of Quasi-Elastic and 1-Pion Production Events in LBL Neutrino Oscillation Experiments [PDF]
The muon energy spectra of the quasi-elastic and 1-pion production events in a LBL experiment, like K2K, are predicted to follow closely the neutrino energy spectrum, with downward shifts of the energy scale by $/2 M$ and $( + M_\Delta^2 - M^2)/2 M ...

The Enigma of the Muon and Tau Solved by Emergent Quantum Mechanics?
This paper addresses the long-standing question of how it may be explained that the three charged leptons (the electron, muon and tau particle) have different masses, despite their conformity in other respects.

The PHENIX Muon Trigger Upgrade [PDF]
The PHENIX muon trigger upgrade adds Level-1 trigger detectors to existing forward muon spectrometers and will enhance the ability of the experiment to pursue a rich program of spin physics in polarized proton collisions at sqrt(s)=500GeV. The additional

New physics for muon anomalous magnetic moment and its electroweak precision analysis
About 3 sigma deviation from the standard model prediction of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2) has been reported. We consider new physics beyond the standard model which has new Yukawa interactions with muon. We compute new contributions to muon

Characterisation of the muon beams for the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment [PDF]
A novel single-particle technique to measure emittance has been developed and used to characterise seventeen different muon beams for the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment (MICE). The muon beams, whose mean momenta vary from 171 to 281 MeV/c, have emittances of approximately 1.5--2.3 πmm-rad horizontally and 0.6--1.0 πmm-rad vertically, a horizontal ...

Estimation of the number of muons with muon counters [PDF]
The origin and nature of the cosmic rays is still uncertain. However, a big progress has been achieved in recent years due to the good quality data provided by current and recent cosmic-rays observatories. The cosmic ray flux decreases very fast with energy in such a way that for energies $\gtrsim 10^{15}$ eV, the study of these very energetic ...
