Special Fruits of the Universe series: Mu2e – A Muon Decay Experiment at Fermilab

by Jose Repond (ANL, Cluster guest)

Tuesday 8 Sept 2015, 12:30 → 13:00 Europe/Berlin

Lounge area, 1st floor (Excellence Cluster Universe)

The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will be reviewed. The experiment is a high-rate search for muon decay modes not expected to occur within the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Jose will briefly introduce the physics goals of the experiment, put in the context of previous and competing measurements and then review some of the technical challenges of the experiment. Please note the special day of this fruits series talk; it is on Tuesday. During this 30-minutes lunch event of the series "Fruits of the Universe", we will serve drinks and fingerfood. The audience is cordially invited to discuss and comment.
