Abstract
COMET is an experiment at J-PARC, Japan, which will search for neutrinoless conversion of muons into electrons in the field of a nucleus (µ− + N → e− + N); a lepton flavor violating process. The experimental sensitivity goal for this process is of order 1015 for Phase-I and 1017 for Phase-II experiment, which is a factor of 100 to 10,000 improvements correspondingly over existing limits. Recent progress in facility and detector development are presented, along with COMET Phase-I experimental schedule.
