What happens when leptons interact with gravity? The LEMING experiment probes this using a novel cold muonium (Mu = μ⁺+e⁻) beam generated in superfluid helium, and diffraction gratings that enable atom interferometry sensitive to nanometer-scale gravitational displacements.
We present progress on beam generation, the interferometer, and detection system, and future outlook including bringing Mu laser spectroscopy to the muon lifetime limit
