Abstract:Mu2e will search for the Charge Lepton Flavor Violating (CLFV) conversion of a muon into an electron in the field of a nucleus. A clean discovery signature is provided by the mono-energetic conversion electron (Ee
= 104.96 MeV). If no events are observed, Mu2e will set a limit on the ratio between the conversion and the nuclear capture rate below 3 × 10−17 (at 90% C.L.). In order to confirm that the observed candidate is an electron, the calorimeter resolution requirements are to provide Ere… Show more
