Muon ac­cel­er­a­tor tech­nol­ogy of­fers a unique and very promis­ing av­enue to a fa­cil­ity ca­pa­ble of pro­duc­ing high in­ten­sity muon beams for neu­trino fac­tory and multi-TeV lep­ton col­lider ap­pli­ca­tions. The goal of the US Muon Ac­cel­er­a­tor Pro­gram is to pro­vide an as­sess­ment, within the next 6 years, of the physics po­ten­tial and tech­ni­cal fea­si­bil­ity of such a fa­cil­ity. This talk will de­scribe the physics op­por­tu­ni­ties that are en­vi­sioned, along with the R&D ef­forts that are being un­der­taken to ad­dress key ac­cel­er­a­tor physics and tech­nol­ogy ques­tions.
