Searches for symmetry violations and new forces
Oral
I give an overview of some puzzling results involving muons (g-2, muonic hydrogen Lamb shift, semileptonic
decays of B-mesons etc). Their theoretical explanations often invoke new physics
in form of light and weakly coupled particles, that is possible to test in high intensity experiments.
Many new ideas for such tests have been proposed over the recent years, some followed up by...

Low energy precision tests of the Standard Model
Oral
The Mu2e Experiment at Fermilab will search for coherent, neutrinoless conversion of
muons into electrons in the field of a nucleus with a sensitivity improvement of a factor
of 10,000 over previous experiments. Such a charged lepton flavor-violating reaction probes
new physics at a scale inaccessible with direct searches at either present or planned high
energy colliders. The experiment...

Low energy precision tests of the Standard Model
Oral
The Mu3e experiment at PSI searches for the lepton flavour violating decay of the positive muon to two positrons and an electron, aiming for a sensitivity of 1 in 10^16 muon decays. This requires a novel detector concept based on ultra thin high-voltage monolithic active pixel sensors (HV-MAPS) complemented by scintillating fibres and tiles for precise timing measurements. The poster will...

Low energy precision tests of the Standard Model
Oral
Lepton flavor violation (LFV) research is currently one of the most exciting branches of particle physics due to its high sensitivity to new physics. The observation of neutrino oscillations has clearly demonstrated that neutral lepton flavor is not conserved. This implies that charged LFV (cLFV) processes, such as the mu+ -> e+ gamma decay, can also occur in the Standard Model (SM), although...
