Abstract: E00.00080 : Simulation studies of the Muon Capture Rate measurement using the EM calorimeter in the Mu2e Experiment*

Fermilab's Mu2e Collaboration
In order to perform a faster and independent measurement of the muon-stopping rate, the experiment will carry out such a measurement using few high light yield crystals placed inside the calorimeter disk. This system has been named CAPHRI (Calorimeter Precise High-Resolution Intensity) and it employs four LYSO (Cerium doped Lutetium-based scintillation) crystals that have been inserted in the calorimeter upstream disk.
The goal of my presentation is to give an explanation of the workings of the Mu2e EM calorimeter and its accompanying CAPHRI system and show some preliminary results using a full simulation of the Mu2e detector.
