Studies for the PRISM FFAG Ring for the Next Generation Muon to Electron Conversion Experiment
High intensity and high quality muon beams are needed for next generation lepton flavour violation experiments. Such beams can be produced by sending a short proton pulse to a pion production target, capturing the pions and performing RF phase rotation on the resulting muon beam in an FFAG ring. Such a solution was proposed for the PRISM project and this paper summarizes its current status. In ...
متن کاملMuon Storage Ring PRISM - FFAG to Improve a Sensitivity of μ - e Conversion Experiment Below 10 − 17
In experiments to search for the coherent neutrino-less conversion of a muon into an electron in the field of a nucleus, the characteristic of a muon beam can limit the achievable sensitivity. Two main limiting factors of the sensitivity, a backgrounds level and an energy resolution of the conversion electrons, are discussed for the MECO-type experiments. The PRISM/PRIME experiment is a solutio...
متن کاملMuon to electron conversion: how to find an electron in a muon haystack.
The standard model (SM) of particle physics describes how the Universe works at a fundamental level. Even though this theory has proven to be very successful over the past 50 years, we know it is incomplete. Many theories that go beyond the SM predict the occurrence of certain processes that are forbidden by the SM, such as muon to electron conversion. This paper will briefly review the history...
متن کاملReport of Working Group I: FFAGs for Muon Physics
Much of the April 2004 to do list relating to FFAGs for muon physics, from the workshop held in Vancouver B.C., has been accomplished; either between the workshops or at this meeting. Activities were focused mostly on the few-MeV electron model of a multi-GeV muon accelerator intended for a Neutrino Factory[1] or Muon Collider; the PRISM[2] FFAG for a lepton-flavour violation experiment was als...
متن کاملLepton Flavor Violation: Muon to electron conversion, COMET and PRISM/PRIME at J-PARC
Physics motivation and phenomenology of µ − e conversion (µ − + N(A, Z) → e − + N(A, Z)) in a muonic atom, which is one the most important muon process to search for lepton flavor violation of charged leptons, are presented. Prospects for future experiments at J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Complex) in Japan, such as the COMET experiment for sensitivity of less than 10 −16 as the first stage ...
