SUMMARY:Muon Capture on the Deuteron: The MuSun Experiment
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Luis Ibáñez\n\nPart of the Departmental Seminars.\n
	\nDissertation Committee:\n\nRobert Carey\, James Miller\, Edward Kearns\, 
	So-Young Pi\, Karl Ludwig\n\nAbstract\n\nThe goal of the MuSun experiment i
	s to measure the rate of nuclear muon capture on the deuteron with a precis
	ion of 1.5%. This rate will be used to fix the low-energy constant that des
	cribes the two-nucleon weak axial current in effective field theory models.
	 It will therefore calibrate evaluations of proton-proton fusion and neutri
	no-deuteron scattering. Progress in the analysis of the data taken during t
	he production run of 2011 will be presented.\n\n![Luis Ibáñez](/resources
