Fixed-Target CP-Violation Experiments at Fermilab
Studies of CP violation, for 30 years focused primarily on the neutral K
meson, are on the threshold of a new era as experiments approach Standard-Model
sensitivities in decays of beauty, charm, and hyperons. The array of
heavy-quark experiments approved and planned at Fermilab may lead to a
significant breakthrough in the next five to ten years.Comment: Revised and expanded for greater clarity and completeness. 15 pages,

Remarks on Muon Experiments and Possible CP Violation in Decay
The first experimental limit on CP violation in pi -> mu -> e decay is
extracted from published results of the CERN g-2 experiment.Comment: 2 pages, LaTeX, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Muon Colliders and Neutrino Factories
Muon colliders and neutrino factories are attractive options for future
facilities aimed at achieving the highest lepton-antilepton collision energies
and precision measurements of Higgs boson and neutrino mixing matrix
parameters. The facility performance and cost depend on how well a beam of
muons can be cooled. Recent progress in muon cooling design studies and
prototype tests nourishes the hope that such facilities could be built starting
in the coming decade. The status of the key technologies and their various
demonstration experiments is summarized. Prospects "post-P5" are also
discussed.Comment: 16 pages, 10 figures. To appear in Proc. ICNFP201
