Description
The Mu2e experiment, currently in advance stages of construction, is using a
novel technique to search for new physics through lepton flavor violation in
the direct conversion of a stopped muon into an electron. The goal is to obtain
sensitivities of a factor of 10,000 over existing limits. We discuss an evolution
of Mu2e, called Mu2e-II, that would profit from the increased proton intensity
provided by the Fermilab PIP-II accelerator upgrade to increase the sensitivity
by up to an additional order of magnitude. The opportunities and challenges of
harnessing this increased intensity to further the reach of Mu2e will be discussed.
