Abstract :
The muon (g-2) experiment at Brookhaven has completed a first run. The main components of the experiment, which include the superconducting inflector, the superferric storage ring, the electrostatic quadrupoles and the lead-scintillating fiber electron calorimeters, have been commissioned satisfactorily. The analysis of data taken in June and July 1997 is in progress.
