Katherine Ferraby

The Standard Model predicts a specific value for the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and Muon g-2 was built to test this prediction and the Standard Model. MUonE’s role is to improve the uncertainty on the theoretical value used in g-2.

Katie graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2022 with a Master in Physics and continued at the University for her PhD. Katie’s Masters project was focused on measuring CP violation in muons via the electric dipole moment and determining which events held the most desired information.

The PhD is centered around the Muon g-2 project which intends to rigorously test the precision and accuracy of the Standard Model and the MUonE project which intends to precisely measure the leading hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment. She will be focused on analysing the final datasets for Muon g-2 and contributing to the setup of MUonE.
