The current status of the Mu2e experiment at Fermilab — •Stefan E. Müller, Anna Ferrari, Oliver Knodel, and Reuven Rachamin for the Mu2e collaboration — Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Dresden, Germany

The Mu2e experiment, which is currently under construction at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory near Chicago, will search for the neutrinoless direct conversion of a muon to an electron in the field of an aluminum nucleus, aiming at a sensitivity four orders of magnitude better than previous experiments. The observation would imply the violation of charged lepton flavor, and hint at physics beyond the Standard Model.

With the arrival of the large superconducting solenoid magnets at Fermilab, and the installation of the main detector subsystems at their final locations inside the Mu2e hall, the experiment has entered an exciting phase of its construction towards data taking.

The design and status of the Mu2e experiment and its detector subsystems will be presented, highlighting the large progress made over the last year.
