Can we measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment 3x better at FNAL?

Abstract: 

Inevitably, the question arises: Can one improve the FNAL Muon g-2 experiment? Despite the present limitations of the SM prediction, we describe a thought exercise that illustrates a potential path toward an improved experimental precision by roughly a factor of three—to the level of ≃ 40ppb—should future developments warrant it. The concept envisions a ten-fold increase in statistics (30ppb) combined with a three-fold reduction in systematics (25ppb). The external constant uncertainties should decrease to about 10 ppb because of anticipated future muonium experiments.  Come hear the ideas, some solid, some a bit speculative, and plan to chip in with your creative wisdom!
