Precision experiments with pions and muons
Oral
Muon decay offers an opportunity to test the Standard Model
of particle physics in a purely leptonic situation where
more ambiguous strong interaction processes are absent. The
TRIUMF Weak Interaction Symmetry Test (TWIST) was designed
specifically to improve by an order of magnitude the
precision of the decay parameters $\rho$, $\delta$, and $P_{\mu}\xi$
derived from energy and angle...

Searches for symmetry violations
Oral
Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) has recently started its operation and a wide variety of physics programs using muon, pion, neutrino, and kaon are starting. We present latest activities of muon physics programs at J-PARC with a focus on lepton-flavor violation search experiments.
