Description

The LEMING experiment aims to test the equivalence principle for second-generation matter, using a cold muonium beam (bound μ+e−), where the inertial mass is dominated by the muon.
The feasibility of such a measurement relies on measuring the gravitational deflection of a lifetime-limited atomic beam. In this poster, the feasibility of an atomic interferometer is discussed, which could potentially provide a percent-level measurement of g of muonium.
