The AlCap is an experiment which precisely measures products of
|
||||
nuclear muon capture on aluminum. It is a joint project between COMET and Mu2e
|
||||
collaborations since both experiments intend to search for lepton flavor
|
||||
violating conversion $\mu^-+A\rightarrow e^-+A$ where the capture products
|
||||
would cause significant issues on detector hit rates, radiation damage, and
|
||||
backgrounds.
|
||||
|
||||
The first run of AlCap has been carried out at PSI in December 2013 for
|
||||
protons measurement. Initial analysis showed that emission rate of protons from
|
||||
4 to 8 MeV is $(1.7 \pm 0.1)$ per nuclear muon capture. The proton spectrum
|
||||
peaks at 3.7 MeV and decreases exponentially with a decay constant of 2.6 MeV.
|
||||
Two more runs are scheduled in June (for neutrons and photons), and October
|
||||
(for protons) 2015.

%The AlCap experiment is a joint project between the COMET and Mu2e
|
||||
%collaborations. Both experiments intend to look for the lepton-flavour
|
||||
%violating conversion $\mu^-+A\rightarrow e^-+A$, using tertiary muons from high-power pulsed
|
||||
%proton beams. In these experiments the products of ordinary muon capture in the
|
||||
%muon stopping target are an important concern, both in terms of hit rates in
|
||||
%tracking detectors and radiation damage to equipment. The goal of the AlCap
|
||||
%experiment is to provide precision measurements of the products of nuclear
|
||||
%capture on Aluminium, which is the favoured target material for both COMET and
|
||||
%Mu2e. The results will be used for optimising the design of both conversion
|
||||
%experiments, and as input to their simulations. Data was taken in December 2013
|
||||
%and is currently being analysed.
