Abstract

The spontaneous muonium-to-antimuonium conversion is one of the interesting charged lepton flavor violation processes. MACE is the next generation experiment to probe such a phenomenon. In models with a triplet Higgs to generate neutrino masses, such as Type-II seesaw and its variant, this process can be induced by the doubly-charged Higgs contained in it. In this article, we study the prospect of MACE to probe these models via the muonium-to-antimuonium transitions. After considering the limits from μ+e+γ\mu^+ \rightarrow e^+ \gamma and μ+e+ee+\mu^+ \rightarrow e^+ e^- e^+, we find that MACE could probe a parameter space for the doubly-charged Higgs which is beyond the reach of LHC and other flavor experiments.
