Search for rare decay modes of the muon

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5901022· OSTI ID:5901022
A brief summary is given on progress in producing an experimental apparatus, called the Crystal Box detector, for searching for extremely rare decay modes of the muon (those decays violating lepton number conservation). The Crystal Box consists of a large solid angle modular NaI(Tl) detector enclosing a cylindrical set of drift chambers and a trigger hodoscope. Associated electronic equipment is also described briefly. (LEW)
