| contents | The FAMU experiment at RAL has been designed to study the hyperfine splitting (HFS) of muonic hydrogen and thus measure the Zemach radius of the proton, with a precision better than 1 %. The HFS transition is excited by a tunable MIR laser at ~ 6790 nm and is recognized by delayed ($μ$O) X-ray emission around 130-170 keV. The fast X-ray detection system is based on 34 scintillating LaBr3:Ce crystals and one HPGe detector for inter-calibration. |
