An estimate of the hadron production uncertainty and a measurement of the rate of proton emission after nuclear muon capture for the COMET experiment

The COherent Muon to Electron Transition (COMET) experiment will be searching for the charged lepton flavour violating process µ _ + N(Z, A) -+ e_ + N(Z, A) in aluminium with a single event sensitivity of 3 × 10_17. In order to achieve this sensitivity, COmet will utilise a novel pion capture soleno...
