Abstract We examine the capability of Mu3e to probe light new physics scenarios that produce a prompt electron-positron resonance and demonstrate how angular observables are instrumental in enhancing the experimental sensitivity. We systematically investigate the effect of Mu3e’s expected sensitivity on the parameter space of the dark photon, as well as on axion-like particles and light scalars with couplings to muons and electrons.
