The upcoming Mu3e experiment searches for the lepton flavour violating decay $\mu^+\,\rightarrow\,e^+ e^- e^+$ with the aim of a final sensitivity of one signal decay in $10^{16}$ observed muon decays, an improvement over the preceding…
The MEG experiment is designed to search the Lepton Flavor Violating process $\mu \to e^+\gamma$ \cite{mori-1999,meg2007-baldini}. This search requires a high intensity muon beam stopping in a thin target with the maximum rate compatible…
We present the first direct search for lepton flavour violating muon decay mediated by a new light particle X, $\mu^+ \to \mathrm{e}^+\mathrm{X}, \mathrm{X} \to \gamma\gamma$. This search uses a dataset resulting from $7.5\times 10^{14}$…
Searches for rare processes such as mu --> e gamma put stringent limits on lepton flavour violation expected in many Beyond the Standard Model physics scenarios. This usually precludes the observation of flavour violation at high energy…
A review of the experimental status in searches for charged Lepton Flavor Violation (LFV) is presented. Searches for LFV in decays of leptons, heavy mesons, and bosons are explored, with an emphasis on the experiments providing the best…
The MEG experiment took data at the Paul Scherrer Institute in the years 2009--2013 to test the violation of the lepton flavour conservation law, which originates from an accidental symmetry that the Standard Model of elementary particle…

Electric dipole moments and charged-lepton flavour-violating processes are extremely sensitive probes for new physics, complementary to direct searches as well as flavour-changing processes in the quark sector. Beyond the "smoking-gun"…
Despite a large experimental effort, so far no evidence for flavour-violating decays of charged leptons such as $l_i\to l_j\gamma$ and $l_i\to l_j l_k l_k$ has been found. The absence of a signal puts very severe constraints on many…
