Introduction Mu2e experiment is a search for Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (CLFV) via the coherent conversion of m-N  e-N Mu2e will use current proton source at Fermilab to achieve world’s best sensitivity Target sensitivity has great discovery potential Goal: <0.5 events background Goal: Single-event-sensitivity of 2 x 10-17 (this yields Discovery Sensitivity for all rates > few 10-16) Factor of 104 improvement over world’s previous best results W.Bertl et al.

SUSY These are SUSY benchmark points for which LHC has discovery sensitivity Some of these will be observable by MEG/B Factories All of these will be observable by Mu2e Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Mu2e, MEG and the LHC Mu2e is important regardless of what happens with MEG or the LHC If MEG sees a signal Mu2e also has sensitivity. Besides a confirmation of CLFV, combination of mN  eN and BR(m  eg) is a powerful discriminator between new physics models. If MEG sees no signal, Mu2e has sensitivity to new physics that MEG does not, so observation still possible. If LHC discovers new physics, Mu2e and Mu2e/MEG can provide insight into its interpretation. If LHC does not discover new physics, Mu2e has a reach of ~104 TeV, so discovery still possible. Mu2e is a potential discovery experiment that is relevant in all possible scenarios. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Target foils Pulsed beam combined with extinction of beam between pulses and delayed search window reduces prompt backgrounds like Radiative Pion Capture.

Project Scope Scope of the Project includes the Mu2e apparatus (solenoids, detectors) accelerator modifications, new detector hall that is part of Fermilab’s new Muon Campus. Mu2e Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Mu2e Project Status The Mission Need (CD-0) for Mu2e was established in Nov The Mu2e cost and schedule range (CD-1) was approved in July 2012. Establish Performance Baseline (CD-2) in Spring of 2014 Important to understand all contributions to the Project on this time scale The Department of Energy has provided us with a preliminary funding profile for $230M. The Mu2e Project has thus far received $68M of this funding, representing a significant commitment from the DOE. Mu2e enjoys strong support from The Department of Energy, Congress and Fermilab.

Solenoid Status Significant engineering and design effort. ~25 FTEs now engaged in solenoid effort. Embarking on a year of conductor R&D to validate design prior to fabrication of the solenoids. Purchasing samples of all 4 solenoid conductor types. Detector Solenoid and Production Solenoid to be built in industry (possibly even in Italy!). Transport Solenoid still under discussion. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Tracker Status T-Tracker was presented as the baseline at DOE Review in June. Straw tubes transverse to solenoid axis. Considerable work on design and simulations over the past 3 years. I-Tracker proposed as an alternative Significant R&D on a design relevant for both Mu2e and MEG. Significant synergy from INFN perspective. Simulation work not as far along as T-Tracker, but catching up. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Tracker Status Collaboration evaluating whether I-Tracker satisfies physics requirements I-Tracker resolution is similar to T-Tracker. Significantly more hits leads to more robust pattern recognition and track fitting that could lead to reduced backgrounds. Collaboration will finish evaluation by end of December. Project will make final decision if I-Tracker determined to satisfy physics requirements. Final decision made on the basis of cost, schedule, risk. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Calorimeter Status Managed by INFN – S. Miscetti is the System Manager LYSO chosen as calorimeter element. High light output Radiation hard Small RM Fast decay time LYSO is more expensive than lead-tungstate but the significantly increased light output and radiation hardness simplify the design and saves money elsewhere. Operate at room temperature Use of a simple voltage amplifier in place of a charge sensitive amplifier and shaper Smaller area photodetectors No loss of running time to recover from radiation damage. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Beam Test Ratio of crystal response to beam energy March 2011 test of a LYSO array using the tagged photon beam at the Mainz Microtron. Funded entirely by INFN Test of energy, timing and position resolution Test of photodetector candidates Prototype HV boards Excellent training ground for students and post docs who participated in the beam test and who simulated test array. Good agreement between data and simulations. Another beam test to take place in the next year. Position Resolution Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Calorimeter Geometry Vane and disk geometry both under consideration. Disks have higher acceptance and are symmetric to electrons and positrons. However, neutrons are more problematic for disks. Collaboration producing simulations to study the issue. Expect a final decision early in 2013. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Importance of Calorimeter
The calorimeter provides an important cross-check for the energy, position and timing of conversion electrons. Can be integrated into the reconstruction along with the tracker to provide an unambiguous space point and T0 to help eliminate left-right ambiguities and make for more robust track finding. The calorimeter can provide a simple trigger for conversion electron candidates and can provide an unbiased trigger to to calibrate the tracker. Mu2e budget cannot currently support the full cost of the calorimeter, so INFN contribution can add significant value and capability to the experiment. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

INFN Contributions INFN is fully integrated into the Project and the Collaboration with representation on the Mu2e Technical Board, Institutional Board and Executive Committee. Significant Mu2e Contributions from Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare Lecce Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, Pisa Università del Salento Università di Udine and INFN Trieste/Udine INFN Genova has recently engaged to help on the solenoids.

Ray - CSN1 Presentation

INFN Contributions Lecce/Salento I-Tracker design and R&D Simulations of I-Tracker T-Tracker Broad array of simulations for trackers, calorimeter, neutron production, etc. Genova Proposes to play an important role in the solenoids including contributions to conductor and coil R&D. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation

Summary The physics addressed by Mu2e is extremely compelling. This is a discovery experiment. Mu2e is complementary to MEG and the LHC and is important in any scenario. The Mu2e Project enjoys significant support from the US Department of Energy, Congress and Fermilab. INFN is fully integrated into Mu2e and is playing a critical role on several fronts. A contribution from INFN towards the calorimeter adds a significant capability that may not be possible otherwise. Dec. 3, 2012 R. Ray - CSN1 Presentation
