This volume comprises a collection of invited papers presented at
the interna tional symposium "The Future of Muon Physics", May 7-9
1991, at the Ruprecht Karls-Universitat in Heidelberg. In the
inspiring atmosphere of the Internationales Wissenschaftsforum
researchers working worldwide at universities and at many inter
national accelerator centers came together to review the present
status of the field and to discuss the future directions in muon
physics. The muon, charged lepton of the second generation, was
first oberved some sixty years ago~ Despite many efforts since, the
reason for its existence still remains a secret to the scientific
community challenging both theorists and experimentalists. In
modern physics the muon plays a key role in many topics of
research. Atomic physics with negative muons provides excellent
tests of the theory of quantum electrodynamics and of the
electro-weak interaction and probes nuclear properties. The. purely
leptonic hydrogen-like muonium atom allows tests of fun damental
laws in physics and the determination of precise values for
fundamental constants. New measurements of the anomalous magnetic
moment of the muon will probe the renormalizability of the weak
interaction and will be sensitive to physics beyond the standard
model. The muon decay is the most carefully studied weak process.
Searches for rare decay modes of muons and for the conversion of
muonium to antimuonium examine the lepton number conservation laws
and new speculative theories. Nuclear muon capture addresses
fundamental questions like tests of the CPT theorem.
