abstract

We determine the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ correction to the energy spectrum of electrons produced in the decay of muons bound in atoms. We focus on the high-energy end of the spectrum that constitutes a background for the muon-electron conversion and will be precisely measured by the upcoming experiments Mu2e and COMET. The correction suppresses the background by about 15\%.

  1. An effective field theory for muon conversion and muon decay-in-orbit

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A five-stage EFT tower factorizes QED corrections to muon conversion and decay-in-orbit near the endpoint, yielding a resummed NLL-corrected signal shape.

  2. $\mu^- \to e^-\gamma$ in a muonic atom as a probe for effective lepton flavor violating operators involving photon fields

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A muonic atom's muon can decay to an electron and photon through two-photon flavor-violating operators, and this process could be observable in future muon experiments for heavy target nuclei.
