% To set effective sepwid, onecolwid and twocolwid values, first choose how

% separation I chose is 0.024 and I want 4 columns
% Then set onecolwid to be (1-(4+1)*0.024)/4 = 0.22
% Set twocolwid to be 2*onecolwid + sepwid = 0.464

			\begin{block}{Introduction - Searches for cFLV}
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Charged lepton flavor violation (cFLV), if observed, is a clear
						evidence of new physics beyond the Standard Model (fig.
						\ref{fig:SMmeg}).
						\begin{figure}[h!]

						\end{figure}
					\item Event signal of $\mu - e$ conversion
					\item COMET schedule
				\end{itemize}
			\end{block}
			\vskip2ex

			\begin{block}{Introduction$\boldsymbol{\mu^-N \rightarrow e^-N}$}
				\vskip1ex
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Two major experiments search for $\mu-e$ conversion:
						COMET@J-PARC and Mu2e@FNAL 
					\item Design issue from muon capture process: optimization of the
						target thickness and the absorber to reduce hit rate of protons
						\begin{figure}[]
							\includegraphics[width=22cm]{figs/phase1det}
							\caption{Concept of the tracking detector of COMET Phase I [ref]}
							\label{fig:phase1det}
						\end{figure}
					\item Current status: no data available for relevant target and
						energy range. Mu2e and COMET are using a parameterization of muon
						capture data taken from the Si active target in 1968.

			\begin{block}{The new measurement of charged particles emission
				from muon capture}
				\begin{itemize}
					\item A joint collaboration between COMET and Mu2e
					\item Goals of the experiment:
						\begin{itemize}
							\item[-] measure rate and energy spectra of the charged particles
								(p, d, $\alpha$) emitted after muon capture on some targets:
								Al, Si and Si (active target), 
							\item[-] required precision: 5\% for both the rate and the energy
								spectra in  the range from 2.5 $-$ 12 MeV
						\end{itemize}
					\item Will be conducted at TRIUMF (Canada) and PSI (Switzerland).

			% Methods
			\begin{block}{Methods}
				\begin{minipage}[t]{\onecolwid}
				\begin{figure}[]
					\includegraphics[width=0.95\onecolwid]{figs/setup}
					\caption{Schematic view of the experimental set up}
					\label{fig:setup}
				\end{figure}
				\end{minipage} % Do not put another blank line after this line because
				%that will mess up the alignment of the two minipages
				\begin{minipage}[t]{\onecolwid} 
					The schematic view of the experimental set up is shown in the Figure
					\ref{fig:setup}:
					\begin{itemize}
						\item Low momentum muon beam: to ensure a high rate of stopped
							muons, and a well determined range of muons in the targets. A
							cloud muon of 30 $-$ 34 MeV/c from a surface muon channel is
							optimal.
						\item The charged particles are measured by dE/dx method
							by two pairs of silicon detectors. Active area of each silicon
							detector is 5$\times$5 cm$^2$, the dE detectors are 65 $\mu m$
							thick, and the E detectors are 1500 $\mu m$ thick.
						\item Muon normalization: muonic X-ray measurement by a germanium
							detector.
						\item Correction for energy loss of charged particles in the
							targets: using a response function obtained from the use of the
							active silicon target, where the energy loss can be measured. A
							waveform digitizer will be used to readout signals from the
							active target.
					\end{itemize}

			% Simulation result
			\begin{block}{Calculations}
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Using Geant4, with assumptions:
						\begin{itemize}
							\item [-] Muon momentum 30 MeV/c, momentum spread 5\%.
							\item [-] Muon intensity: 10$^4$ muons/sec. 
							\item [-] Proton emission rate is 0.15 per muon capture, the same
								value as being used in COMET and Mu2e calculations.
							\item [-] Efficiency of silicon detectors are 100\%.
							\item [-] Energy resolution (FWHM) of silicon detectors are: 140
								keV for the 65 $\mu m$-thick detectors, and 40 keV for the
								$140 \mu m$-thick detectors.
						\end{itemize}
					\item Simulation results of particle identification and rate
						estimation is shown in Figure \ref{fig:dEdx} and Table
						\ref{tb:rates}.
