  1. 90. Project X
    Dr Robert Tschirhart (Fermilab)
    12/09/2013, 14:30
    Oral
    “Project-X” is a US led initiative at Fermilab with strong international participation that aims to realize a next generation proton accelerator that will dramatically extend the reach of Intensity Frontier research. The state of the art in Super Conducting RF accelerator technology has advanced to a point where it can be considered and implemented as the core enabling technology for a next...

  2. 39. Mu2e at Fermilab: a search for charged lepton flavor violation in muon to electron conversion
    Andrei Gaponenko (Fermilab)
    12/09/2013, 14:55
    Oral
    The Mu2e experiment will search for coherent, neutrino-less conversion of muons into electrons in the field of a nucleus to a few parts in 10^{-17}. This lepton flavor violating process is sensitive to a range of new physics models inaccessible through other searches. The ambitious 4 order of magnitude sensitivity improvement over existing limits will probe mass scales up to O(10^4)...

  3. 8. Searching for the lepton flavor violating decay mu->egamma with the MEG experiment: results and perspectives
    Dr Cecilia Voena (INFN Roma)
    12/09/2013, 15:15
    Oral
    Charged lepton flavor violating (cLFV) processes are strongly suppressed in the Standard Model, therefore their observation would be a clear indication of New Physics. Most New Physics models predict cLFV at an observable level. The MEG experiment, at the Paul Scherrer Institute, searches for the cLFV mu ->egamma decay, down to a Branching Ratio of a few 10^(-13), exploiting the most intense...

  4. 13. The Mu3e Experiment at PSI
    Prof. Andre Schoening (University Heidelberg, Institute of Physiscs)
    12/09/2013, 15:35
    Oral
    The lepton flavor violation decay muon -> eee provides an excellent testing ground for physics beyond the SM. This process being experimentally excluded with Br(mu->eee) < 10^-12 (90% CL), the Mu3e collaboration aims at improving the sensitivity of the former SINDRUM experiment by four orders of magnitude down to 10^-16 by exploiting novel detector technologies. The physics motivation for...
