ABSTRACT: |
We are conducting an experiment searching for lepton-flavor violating
muon decay to gamma and positron at Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland.
The experiment aims to achieve a sensitivity of 10^-13, which is
two orders of magnitude lower than the current experimental limit.
The experiment successfully completed engineering runs in 2007
and starting full data acquisition in 2008. I will describe uniqueness
of the experimental apparatus and summarize future prospects of the
experiment.
