 +Old method: Quantum hall effect resistance R$_k$ --> no longer available 
 + 
 +==== New method: Atom interferometer ==== 
 + 
 +Young’s-double slit interferometer of light  
 + 
 +two points: 
 +  - coherent  
 +  - slit 
 + 
 +Our case: atom interference by light 
 + 
 +Manipulation of an atom w/ light  
 + 
 +Gain momentum! from excitation 
 + 
 +Optical lattice to accelerate the atom 
 + 
 +interference occurred at the t0 + 2T + T' 
 +(the N traveled from different way are different) 
 + 
 +Two sources: Cs and Rb 
 + 
 +measure the h/M, then

 + 
 +R$_\infity$ puzzle --> does not matter 
 + 
 +Ar(M), Ar(me) --> g factor! 
 + 
 +Error sources: largest is the laser beam profile 
 + 
 +==== electron g-2 ====

 +Penning trap

 +should not be an issue for muon g-2, but it is for e g-2 
 + 
 +h/M may not be insensitive to new physics 
 + 
 +**SHOULD study such effect on Mu 1S2S**
