We present an estimate of the electron to muon conversion cross section in fixed-target elastic electron scattering. The matrix element $<\mu | j_\mathrm{em}^\mu(0) | e>$ is calculated analytically in two scenarios introducing suitable…
Exploring the leptonic sector in frontier experiments is more of importance nowadays, since the conservation of lepton flavor and total lepton number are not guaranteed anymore in the Standard Model after the discovery of neutrino…
Together with the existence of new neutral gauge bosons, models based on extended gauge groups (rank $> 4$) often predict also new charged fermions. A mixing of the known fermions with new states with {\it exotic} weak-isospin assignments…
The potential of the muon colliders open up new possibilities for the exploration of new physics beyond the Standard Model. It is worthwhile to investigate whether muon colliders are suitable for studying gluonic quartic gauge…
We present the first detailed computation of the conversion of a bound muon into an electron mediated by a doubly charged $SU(2)$ singlet scalar. Although such particles are not too exotic, up to now their contribution to $\mu$-$e$…
In models where lepton number is considered to be a spontaneously-broken global symmetry a massless Goldstone boson, the majoron (J), appears. We describe a procedure to explore the muon-electron-majoron coupling using the results from mu-e…
In the context of the local gauge group $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$, we look for possible four family models, where all the particles carry ordinary electric charges. Thirteen different anomaly-free fermion structures emerge, out…

The $e^+e^-$ pair production in collisions of muon with atoms is considered to all orders in the parameter $Z\alpha$. We obtain energy distribution of $e^+$ and $e^-$ as well as energy loss of muon passing through matter with heavy atoms.…
$\mu-e$ conversion is the experimentally most interesting lepton flavor violating process. From a theoretical point of view it is an interesting interplay of particle and nuclear physics. The effective transition operator, depending on the…
We investigate the variation with light quark mass of the mass of the nucleon as well as the masses of the mesons commonly used in a one-boson-exchange model of the nucleon-nucleon force. Care is taken to evaluate the meson mass shifts at…
Family Replicated Gauge Group models of the type SU(n)^N\times SU(m)^N, (SMG)^3 and (SMG\times U(1)_{B-L})^3 are reviewed, where SMG=SU(3)_{c}\times SU(2)_{L}\times U(1)_{Y} is the gauge symmetry group of the Standard Model, $B$ is the…
Based on the $SU(3)_{F}$ gauge family symmetry model which was proposed to explain the observed mass and mixing pattern of neutrinos, we investigate the symmetry breaking, the mixing pattern in quark and lepton sectors, and the contribution…
We investigate, in detail, a model in which the third family fermions are subjected to an SU(2) dynamics different from the first two families. Constrained by the precision Z-pole data, the heavy gauge boson mass is bounded from below to be…
An extension of the gauge group $SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_Y$ of the standard model to the symmetry group $SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ (3-4-1 for short) is presented. The model does not contain exotic electric charges and anomaly cancellation is…
A detailed study of the muonic analogue of neutrinoless double beta decay, (muon^-,muon^+) conversion, has been carried out for the A=44 nuclear system. We studied several lepton number violating (LNV) mechanisms potentially triggering this…
In this article, we investigate the $\mu^-\to e^-X$ process in a muonic atom, where $X$ is a light neutral boson. By calculating the spectrum of the emitted electron for several cases, we discuss the model-discriminating power of the…
