Abstract: We present a new measurement of the positive muon magnetic anomaly, a, equivalent to (g,- 2)/2, from the Fermilab Muon g – 2 Experiment using data collected in 2019 and 2020. We have analyzed more than 4 times the number of positrons from muon decay than in our previous result from 2018 data. The systematic error is reduced by more than a factor of 2 due to better running conditions, a more stable beam, and improved knowledge of the magnetic field weighted by the muon distribution, w similar to ip, and of the anomalous precession frequency corrected for beam dynamics effects, wa. From the ratio wa/w similar to ip, together with precisely determined external parameters, we determine a, = 116 592 057(25) x 10-11 (0.21 ppm). Combining this result with our previous result from the 2018 data, we obtain a,(FNAL) = 116592055(24) x 10-11 (0.20 ppm). The new experimental world average is a,(exp) = 116 592 059(22) x 10-11 (0.19 ppm), which represents a factor of 2 improvement in precision.

More Information: We thank the Fermilab management and staff for their strong support of this experiment, as well as our university and national laboratory engineers, technicians, and workshops for their tremendous support. Greg Bock and Joe Lykken set the blinding clock and diligently monitored its stability. The Muon g – 2 Experiment was performed at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, a U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, HEP User Facility. Fermilab is managed by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC (FRA) , acting under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359. Additional support for the experiment was provided by the Department of Energy offices of HEP and NP (USA) , the National Science Foundation (USA) , the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (Italy) , the Science and Technology Facilities Council (UK) , the Royal Society (UK) , the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grants No. 11975153 and No. 12075151) , MSIP, NRF, and IBS-R017-D1 (Republic of Korea) , the German Research Foundation (DFG) through the Cluster of Excellence PRISMA+ (EXC 2118/1, Project ID 39083149) , the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Grant Agreements No. 101006726 and No. 734303, the European Union STRONG 2020 project under Grant Agreement No. 824093, and the Leverhulme Trust, LIP-2021-01.
