What is µ → e conversion • μ converts to an electron in the presence of a nucleus µ − N → e − N E e = m µ c 2 - B µ (Z) - C(A) = 104.973 MeV • for Aluminum: { B µ (Z) is the muon binding energy (0.48 MeV) C(A) is the nuclear recoil energy (0.21 MeV) • μ conversion in the SM is induced by neutrino masses and mixing at a negligible level ~ 10 -52 • Many SM extensions enhance the rate through mixing in the high energy sector of the theory (other particles in the loop…) ν N q q w w ν i µ - e - Supersymmetry Heavy neutrino ν MSM Lepto-quark

Experimental setup (1) Production Solenoid: (3) Detector Solenoid: ➡ Proton beam strikes target, producing ➡ Capture muons on Al target mostly pions ➡ Measure momentum in tracker and ➡ Graded magnetic field contains energy in calorimeter backwards pions/muons and reflects ➡ Graded field “reflects” downstream slow forward pions/muons 
 conversion electrons emitted upstream 
 8 GeV protons (3) Al stopping 
 (2) target (1) calorimeter tracker (2) Transport Solenoid: cosmic ray veto ➡ Select low momentum, negative muons ➡ Antiproton absorber in the mid-section

Calorimeter design • 2 disks; each disk contains 678 undoped CsI crystals 20 x 3.4 x 3.4 cm 3 • Disk separation ~ 75 cm • Inner/outer radii: 37.4/66 cm • Crystal choice: undoped CsI provides light yield (LY) > 100 pe/MeV, longitudinal response uniformity 
 < 10%, emission decay time 𝛖 ~ 16 ns • Photosensor choice: custom array

Calo seeded track finder • Cluster time and position are used for filtering the straw hits: ✓ time window of ~ 80 ns ✓ spatial correlation no selection calorimeter selection • black crosses = straw hits, red circle = calorimeter cluster, 
 green line = CE track G. Pezzullo (INFN of Pisa) TIPP’17 - May 22 2017 12

Calorimeter trigger • Calo info can provide additional trigger capabilities in Mu2e: • Calorimeter seeded track finder : ✓ factorized into 3 steps: hit pre-selection, helix search and track fit ✓ ϵ ~95% for a background rejection of 200 • Standalone calorimeter trigger that uses only calo info: ✓ ϵ ~65% for a background rejection of 200 Bkg rejection ϵ ce Standalone Cali-Seeded calorimeter track finder ϵ ce Hit pre-selection helix search Kalman filter G.

Conclusions • The Mu2e calorimeter has been designed to: ✓ operate in a very harsh environment (high ɣ and neutron dose) ✓ provide background rejection capabilities via PID ✓ make the track search more robust against background occupancy ✓ triggering capabilities • R&D steps well defined ✓ pre-production of crystals and SiPM already started ✓ QA processes of the main components already established ✓ large-scale prototype built and already under test using e - beam G.
