Abstract: We present a feasibility study demonstrating how recent advances in quantum-sensing technologies can facilitate stringent comparisons between theoretical predictions and experimental measurements of \emph{contact-free} transitions in muonic atoms. Such comparisons can probe previously unexplored regions of the parameter space governing spin-independent muon-proton interactions and disentangle the extraction of fundamental constants from searches for physics beyond the Standard Model.
