Description
Mu3e is a dedicated experiment for the rare lepton flavour violating decay $\mu^{+} \rightarrow e^{+}e^{-}e^{+}$. Its ultimate goal is to find or exclude this process if it occurs more than once in $10^{16}$ muon decays, a four orders of magnitude improvement.
A thin multi-layer scintillating fibre detector read out on both sides with silicon photomultiplier arrays provides a sub nanosecond time measurement in order to reject combinatorial background at a muon stopping rate ~$10^8$ muon/s, concurrently minimizing the material budget to $X/X_{0}<$~ 0.3%.
The requirements and design of its trigger-less high rate readout chain, including the dedicated readout chip MuTRiG, are presented. It complements the talk “The Mu3e Fiber Detector”.
