Abstract
We describe the installation, commissioning, and characterization of the new injection kicker system in the Muon g−2 Experiment (E989) at Fermilab, which makes a precision measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly. Three Blumlein pulsers drive each of the 1.27-m-long non-ferric kicker magnets, which reside in a storage ring vacuum (SRV) that is subjected to a 1.45 T magnetic field. The new system has been redesigned relative to Muon g−2’s predecessor experiment, and we present those details in this manuscript.
