Description
I will discuss signatures of muon-to-electron conversion arising from both heavy and light new physics at high-intensity rare muon decay experiments. For heavy new physics, I will outline a hierarchy of effective field theories for computing the rate of $\mu \to e$ conversion in the field of a nucleus, highlighting how different new physics scenarios imprint on nuclear responses relevant for experiments such as Mu2e and COMET. For light new physics, I will focus on the discovery potential and experimental reach of the $\mu \to 5e$ channel at Mu3e.
