Abstract

Lepton flavor violation in the neutrino mixing is so far a fact. This means that also charged-lepton-flavor-violation (cLFV) must exists. Mu2e searches for a particular process, the neutrino-less conversion of muons into electrons in the field of an aluminum nucleus. The sensitivity expected for Mu2eis ∼ 10−17, which represents an improvement of a factor of 103-104 over existing limits. If no conversion events will be seen, it will set an upper limit on the conversion rate of Rμe < 6 × 10−17 90% C.L. Mu2e collaboration has received CD1 approval in 2012 and will start data taking in 2019.
