Description

The absence of any signature for new physics beyond the standard model at
the Large Hadron Collider has left the field of elementary particle physics in a quandary. We know there is new physics out there: where best to look for it? Searches for certain rare processes provide ultra-sensitive probes for new physics and can reach mass scales unobtainable by any conceivable accelerator, present or imagined. We describe an experiment, Mu2e, that intends to use a novel technique to search for new physics through lepton flavor violation in muon decays with sensitivities a factor of 10,000 over existing limits.
