MUSE: The MUon Scattering Experiment
E. Cline, J. C. Bernauer, E. J. Downie, R. Gilman
Abstract
MUSE is a high-precision muon scattering experiment aiming to determine the proton radius. Muon, electron, and pion scattering will be measured at the same time. Two-photon exchange corrections will be determined with data using both beam polarities.
