The muon (/ˈmjuːɒn/; from the Greek letter mu (μ) used to represent it) is an elementary particle similar to the electron, with electric charge of −1 e and a spin of 1⁄2, but with a much greater mass (7002105700000000000♠105.7 MeV/c2). It is classified as a lepton, together with the electron (mass 6999511000000000000♠0.511 MeV/c2), the tau (mass 7003177682000000000♠1776.82 MeV/c2), and the three neutrinos (electron neutrino ν
e, muon neutrino ν
μ and tau neutrino ν
τ). As is the case with other leptons, the muon is not believed to have any sub-structure—that is, it is not thought to be composed of any simpler particles.
The muon is an unstable subatomic particle with a mean lifetime of 6994220000000000000♠2.2 µs. Among all known unstable subatomic particles, only the neutron (lasting around 15 minutes) and some atomic nuclei have a longer decay lifetime; others decay significantly faster. The decay of the muon (as well as of the neutron, the longest-lived unstable baryon), is mediated by the weak interaction exclusively. Muon decay always produces at least three particles, which must include an electron of the same charge as the muon and two neutrinos of different types.

MUON is a post-rock and electronica band from Singapore that originally began in 1999 as a solo project by founding member, Nick Chan. The band is influenced by genres such as IDM, ambient, trip hop and drum and bass, and artists such as DJ Shadow, Aphex Twin and The Cinematic Orchestra.
Nick released two albums on his own, 'The Death of Cinema' (2003) and 'In Flught' (2004) before recruiting drummer Edwin Leong in 2005. MUON's latest formation now comprises Nick together with Jordan Chia, Adam Shah and Ren Wong.
The band has performed extensively at gigs and festivals including venues Zouk and 3some in Bangkok, Baybeats Festival at The Esplanade, Enroute Festival, Dual City Sessions, PlusMinusTen, Syndicate Subsessions, Musicity Singapore and Fred Perry 60th Anniversary.
MUON recently released its critically acclaimed fourth studio album, 'The Shape of Shapes to Come' (2012) on its bandcamp.
Cuenta el abuelo que
De niño el jugó
Entre árboles y risas
Y alcatraces de color
Recuerda un rÃo
Transparente si olores
Donde abundaban peces
No sufrÃan ni un dolor
Cuenta mà abuelo
De un cielo muy azul
En donde voló papalotes
Ue él Mismo construyó
El tiempo pasó y
Nuestro viejo ya murió
Y hoy me pregunté
Después de tanta destrucción
¿Dónde diablos jugarán los pobres niños?
¡Ay ay ay!
¿En dónde jugarán?
Se esta quemando el mundo
