FlegelIn 1959 CERN launched the g-2 experiment aimed at measuring the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. The measures were studied using a magnet 83cm x 52cm x 10cm borrowed from the University of Liverpool. The experiment's aim was to test quantum electrodynamics, a theory elaborated in the 1940s to describe the effect of the electromagnetic force on charged subatomic particles such as electrons or muons. Among other things, it predicted an anomalously high value, slightly above 2, for the muon's magnetic moment 'g', hence the name of the experiment.CERN-PHOTO-7506096oai:cds.cern.ch:9171361975
