Abstract

An experiment is proposed for a record-breaking measurement of the world Fermi constant during the decay of a positive muon. Using the GEANT programs, an analysis of all systematic errors was performed. It is shown that the experimental accuracy of the muon lifetime and the Fermi constant can be improved by a factor of five.
