The collimator being inserted in the Transport Solenoid. Its main purpose is to select negative muon to be stopped in the stopping target.

Here is a picture of the current status of the electronic calorimeter. The copper boxes are readout units composed of 2 Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPM) inside a Faraday cage.

Purdue Graduate Student JiJun Chen works on Mu2e's Stopping Target Monitor (the STM). This detector monitors X-rays produced during muon capture in the target and helps us normalize our signal rate (or limit) physics.purdue.edu/interactions/2…

The Cosmic Ray Veto (CRV) modules, all stored at Fermilab below the covers. It surrounds our detectors to veto cosmic ray backgrounds. Ongoing tests are underway to understand long-term aging effects, as well as electronic integration and communication with our software system.

Meet the Mu2e tracker. It is made of 20000+ straws assembled in this hollowed cylinder shape (in the background). This detector provides a very accurate measurement of the momentum of charged particles going through.
