Testing the Equivalence Principle Using g-2 Experiments

Robert B. Mann · Modern Physics Letters A · 1997

I discuss the utility of anomalous magnetic moments of elementary leptons as a test of the Einstein Equivalence Principle (EEP). Violations of the EEP in the leptonic sector give rise to novel effects which are manifest in qualitatively different changes in the anomalous precession frequency. The Brookhaven muon-(g-2) experiment E821 can search for such effects directly, offering us a new empirical window into the validity of the EEP.
