AbstractThe TWIST collaboration has completed its measurement of the three muon decay parameters $ ho$, $delta$, and $P_muxi$. This paper describes our determination of $ ho$, which governs the shape of the overall momentum spectrum, and $delta$, which controls the momentum dependence of the parity-violating decay asymmetry. The results are $ ho=0.749,77pm 0.000,12( ext{stat.})pm 0.000,23( ext{syst.})$ and $delta = 0.750,49pm 0.000,21( ext{stat.})pm 0.000,27( ext{syst.})$. These are consistent with the value of 3/4 given for both parameters in the standard model, and each is over a factor of ten more precise than the measurements published prior to TWIST. Our final results on $ ho$, $delta$, and $P_muxi$ have been incorporated into a new global analysis of all available muon decay data, resulting in improved model-independent constraints on the possible weak interactions of right-handed particles.
