Description

The Muonium-to-Antimuonium Conversion Experiment (MACE) is proposed to search for this charged lepton flavor violating process and obtain a higher sensitivity than the 1990’s experiment in PSI, taking advantage of recent technique developments. One clear signature of the conversion is given by positron produced by antimuonium decay. We have designed a positron transport solenoid using G4beamline. The purpose of this design is to transport low-energy orbital positrons collected by an accelerating electric field to a microchannel plate (MCP). The transport solenoid has been designed with magnetic compensation, which allows it to operate with 450 $\mu$m spatial resolution and a reliable position reconstruction. Our subsequent research topics involve integrating this design into the software and designing the accelerating electric field to further refine the experimental design.
