Abstract

We study lepton-flavor violation (LFV) effects occurring in the eμe-\mu conversion in nuclei and in the rare radiative decays η(η)γμe\eta(\eta') \to \gamma \mu e of the η\eta and η\eta' mesons with a special impact of the sub-GeV mass vector mediator (dark photon). In the case of the lepton conversion, we make estimates for running and future experiments operating with electron beams at fixed target. Obtained results are implemented in analysis of the LFV decays η(η)γμe\eta(\eta') \to \gamma \mu e.
