Energy Frontier use high-energy colliders to discover new particles and directly probe the properties of nature

Intensity Frontier Cosmic Frontier use intense beams to observe reveal the natures of dark rare processes and study the matter and dark energy and particle properties to probe probe the architecture of the physics beyond the SM. universe.

from C. Baltay’s talk at the P5 meeting, 29 May 2008 The Intensity Frontier

• The Intensity Frontier is • an indirect search, but • energy scale that could be studied would be much higher than that of accelerators of O(1 TeV). • Through quantum radiative corrections • renormalization group equations usefulness of renormalization equations Quantum Corrections

• Effects are small. • High precision measurements • High intensity beams Which Rare Processes at Low Energy ?

• Processes which are forbidden or highly suppressed in the Standard Model would be the best ones to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model. • Flavor Changing Neutral Current Process (FCNC) • FCNC in the quark sector • b→sγ, K→πνν, etc. • Allowed in the Standard Model. • Need to study deviations from the SM predictions. • Uncertainty of more than a few % (from QCD) exists. • FCNC in the lepton sector • μ→eγ, μ+N→e+N, etc. ( Lepton Flavor Violation = LFV) • Not allowed in the Standard Model (~10-50 with neutrino mixing) • Need to study deviations from none • clear signature and high sensitivity neutrino factory Why Muons, not Taus ?

• Taus at B factories is not large enough, like about 10 taus/sec. • At future super-B factories, intensity increase of O(10-100) is expected. Also some of the decay modes are already background-limited. • Muons at PSI is about 108 /sec. • Intensity increase of 1011-1014 /sec with the technology developed for the front end R&D of muon colliders and/or neutrino factories, where intensity improvement factor of up to about O(1,000,000).

mH0 (GeV) Experimental Comparison between μ→eγ and μ-e Conversion

background challenge beam intensity • μ→eγ accidentals detector resolution limited • μ-e conversion beam beam background no limitation

• μ→eγ : Accidental background is given by (rate)2. The detector resolutions have to be improved, but they (in particular, photon) would be hard to go beyond MEG from present technology. The ultimate sensitivity would be about 10-14 (with about 108/sec) unless the detector resolution is radically improved. • μ-e conversion : Improvement of a muon beam can be possible, both in purity (no pions) and in intensity (thanks to muon collider R&D). A higher beam intensity can be taken because of no accidentals. μ-e conversion might be a next step. Experimental Design for Muon to Electron Conversion

• 荷電レプトンのレプトンフレーバー非保存探索実験(cLFV)の物理的意義は深い。 • ミューオンを使ったcLFV探索としては、例えばμ→eγ やミューオン電子転換過程 (μ-e conversion) などがある。後者は物理的にも実験的にもより重要である。 • μ→eγを探索するPSIでのMEG実験は 10-13 の実験精度を目指し、現在実験が進行中 である。 • 将来の次世代の実験はミューオン電子転換過程 (μ-e conversion) である。現在、米 国で10-16の実験感度を目指すフェルミ加速器研究所でのMu2E実験 と日本のJ-PARC での COMET が計画されている。 • 更に、将来の拡張として、10-18 以下の実験感度を目指すPRISM/PRIMEの研究開発 も大阪大学を中心として行われている。 • 理論的にも実験的にも支援をお願いします。。。。。 End of My Slides
