Abstract
- The Mu2e experiment aims to test Charge Lepton Flavour Violation to an unprecedented level, enhancing the current sensitivity by four orders of magnitude for the neutrinoless conversion of muons into electrons. A series of graded solenoids convey an intense, pulsed muon beam to an aluminum target. The main detector components are a low mass straw drift tubes tracker, a pure Cesium Iodide calorimeter and an extruded plastic scintillator cosmic ray veto. Requirements, tests on prototypes and status of the production will be discussed.<br />Comment: 10 pages, 13 figures, contribution to the proceedings of 15th Topical Seminar on Innovative Particle and Radiation Detectors (IPRD19)
