Abstract: (DESY)
Experiment E989 is under preparation at Fermilab, intending to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon gμ2g_{\mu}-2 to an accuracy of 140 ppb, a fourfold improvement over the Brookhaven E821 result.The latter differs by more than 3 standard deviations from Standard Model predictions, perhaps hinting at new physicsand motivating a more sensitive comparison. The techniques of the new experiment to reduce experimental statistical uncertainties by a factor four and systematics by a factor three will be described.
