Abstract
Precision experiments with muons are sensitive to Planck-scale CPT and Lore ntz violation that is undetectable in other tests. Existing data on the muo nium ground-state hyperfine structure and on the muon anomalous magnetic mo ment could be analyzed to provide dimensionless figures of merit for CPT an d Lorentz violation at the levels of 4 X 10(-21) and 10(-23).
