The COMET experiment aims to search for the charged-lepton flavour violation process by hunting muon-to-electron conversion. A discovery of the process is a proof of an existence of the physics Beyond Standard Model of the particle physics. The experiment is planned to begin in 2016 at J-PARC in Japan. A new proton beamline and an experimental building is being constructed at the J-PARC Hadron Facility.
