A precision measurement of the μ + momentum in π + decay at rest has been made with a magnetic spectrometer. The result is p μ + = (29.7873 ± 0.0014) MeV/c. The consequences of thisresult for the rest masses of the muon neutrino and of the positive pion are discussed.

We have measured the muon momentum in pion decay at rest using a magnetic spectrometer. From the result, p μ + = (29.787±0.005) MeV/ c , we deduce a squared muon neutrino mass of (0.23±0.54) MeV 2 / c 4 .
