Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to search for muon-electron conversion process by the COMET experiment using the world's highest intensity pulsed muon beam and innovative detector at the High Intensity Proton Accelerator Facility (J-PARC) in Tokai to discover physics beyond the standard model of elementary particles. Due to the delay of the facility construction due to a budget problem, the COMET experiment itself has not started its operation yet, but sufficient results have been obtained in the development of the innovative detector, which is a major issue in this research. The development of the straw tube tracking detector and the electromagnetic calorimeter, which are the core of the experiment, was completed including the performance evaluation by the beam test experiment, and the development of the trigger system also progressed. The preparation for the detector production is ready.
