Lepton family number violation processes arise in the $SU(6)_L \otimes U(1)_Y$ model due to the presence of an extra neutral gauge boson, Z$'$, with family changing couplings, and due to the fact that this model demands the existence of…
Based on a sample of $ (10.087\pm 0.044)\times 10^{9} J/\psi$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we perform the first search for the lepton number violating decay $\eta \to \pi^+\pi^+ e^-e^- + \text{c.c.}$ No…
Models with explicit R-parity violation can induce new rare radiative decay modes of the $W$ boson into single supersymmetric particles which also violate lepton number. We examine the rate and signature for one such decay, $W\rightarrow…

In the context of the minimal supersymmetric seesaw model, we study the implications of the current neutrino data for thermal leptogenesis, $\beta\beta_{0\nu}$ decay, and leptonic flavour- and CP-violating low-energy observables. We express…
Assuming 3-neutrino mixing and massive Majorana neutrinos, we analyze the possibility of establishing the existence of CP-violation associated with Majorana neutrinos in the lepton sector i) by measuring of the effective Majorana mass |<m>|…
The $R(D^{(*)})$ puzzle stands for a $\sim3\sigma$ violation of lepton flavor universality between the decay rates of $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$ and $B\to D^{(*)}\ell\nu$, where $\ell=e,\mu$. If it is accounted for by new physics, there is no…
Using 0.8 million D^+D^- pairs collected with the CLEO-c detector at the psi(3770) resonance, we have searched for flavor-changing neutral current and lepton-number-violating decays of D^+ mesons to final states with dielectrons. We find no…
We examine lepton number violation (LNV) in theories with a saturated black hole bound on a large number of species. Such theories have been advocated recently as a possible solution to the hierarchy problem and an explanation of the…
The four decay modes $D^{0}\to\phi\pi^{0}$, $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$, $D^{+}\to\phi\pi^{+}$, and $D^{+}\to\phi K^{+}$ are studied by using a data sample taken at the centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 3.773$~GeV~with the BESIII detector,…
The $\nu_M{\rm SM}$ is defined as the SM extended to include dimension-5 operators. In this model neutrino masses violate lepton number, and two parameters of the lepton mixing matrix, the Majorana phases, are yet to be constrained. One…
We explore the possibility of lepton number violation (LNV) manifesting in the rare kaon decay $K\to\pi\nu\nu$, and its consequences for radiative neutrino mass generation and the washout of Lepton asymmetry in high-scale leptogenesis…
Neutrinoless double beta decay is the most powerful tool to probe not only for Majorana neutrino masses but for lepton number violating physics in general. We discuss relations between lepton number violation, double beta decay and neutrino…
Observation of lepton number ($L$) violation by two units at colliders would provide evidence for the Majorana nature of neutrinos. We study signals of $L$-violation in the context of two popular models of neutrino masses, the type-II…

Recent experimental results suggest that the neutrinos of the Standard Model are massive, though light. Therefore they may mix with each other giving rise to lepton flavour or even lepton number violating processes, depending on whether…
