Abstract

The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab aims to measure the charged-lepton flavour violating (CLFV) neutrino-less conversion of a negative muon into an electron in the field of a nucleus with an unprecedented single event sensitivity of 3x10^{-17}. This document illustrates the physics motivation and design of the experiment. In the current schedule Mu2e is expected to start taking data in 2025 with a reduced average beam intensity for about two years (Run 1). After a shut down for the upgrade of Fermilab accelerator complex, data taking will restart at full beam intensity (Run 2). A detailed update of the expected experiment sensitivity for Mu2e Run 1 is presented, together with an estimate of the final Mu2e sensitivity.
