The Mu2e Experiment at Fermilab: A Search for Lepton Flavor Violation
- Yale
The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for the charged lepton flavor violating process of neutrino-less μ → e coherent conversion in the field of an aluminum nucleus. About 7⋅1017 muons, provided by a dedicated muon beam line in construction at Fermilab, will be stopped in 3 years in the aluminum target. The corresponding single event sensitivity will be 2.5⋅10−17. In this presentation, a brief overview of the physics explored by the μ → e conversion will be given, followed by a description of the Mu2e experimental apparatus and the expected detector performance.
