Mu3e Experiment

Search for the lepton-flavour violating decay
$\mu^+ \to e^+ e^+ e^-$


The Mu3e experiment is a new search for the lepton-flavour violating decay of a positive muon into two positrons and one electron. See here for a an overview of the experiment.

Collaboration meeting at PSI

The Mu3e collaboration got together at PSI for two days of presentations and discussions.

PhD Defense of Sophie

Sophie Dietz defends her PhD

Sophie Dietz has successfully defended her doctoral thesis at the University of Mainz. She has developed the powering system for Mu3e, in particular a very high current DC/DC converter and integrated it into the experiment.

Mu3e Tile Detector Installation

Installation of the scintillating tile detector

Mu3e has installed the scintllating tile detector for the 2026 beamtime, for the first time mounting a complete detector station around the beam line. The tiles can measure the arrival time of electrons and positrons with less than 100 ps resolution.
