Abstract
The MEG experiment, searching for the rare decay μ+ → e+γ, started the data taking at PSI in 2008. Based on data from the initial three months of operation an upper limit on the branching ratio BR(μ → eγ) < 2.8 · 10−11 at 90% confidence level is reported. This corresponds to the measurement of positrons and photons from ∼ 1014 stopped μ+-decays by a superconducting positron spectrometer and a 900 litre liquid-xenon photon detector.
