SUMMARY:Precision Muon Physics: Capturing a Moment in a Lifetime\, Phy
 sics Department Colloquium\, David Hertzog\,  University of Illinois a
 t Urbana-Champaign
DESCRIPTION:Low-energy\, precision measurements are important to estab
 lish the parameters of the Standard Model and to test various predicti
 ons in the quest for new physics signatures. I will discuss two of our
  experiments that recently reported first physics results. Both involv
 e the muon lifetime\, leading to the Fermi Constant at a new level of 
 precision and the nucleon weak pseudoscalar coupling constant g_P\, de
 termined in an unambiguous manner for the first time. Future plans inc
 lude a Fermilab-based next-generation muon anomalous magnetic moment m
 easurement\, which follows on the our effort that has provided one of 
 the strongest hints of physics beyond the Standard Model today.
