We studied the radiative muon decay $\mu^+ \to e^+\nu\bar{\nu}\gamma$ by using for the first time an almost fully polarized muon source. We identified a large sample (~13000) of these decays in a total sample of 1.8x10^14 positive muon…
The recent CLEO results on on radiative $b$-quark decays are used to derive constraints on anomalous $WW\gamma$ couplings. These constraints are compared with expectations from $p\bar p\rightarrow e^\pm p\llap/_T\gamma+X$ at the Tevatron.…
We interpret the newly observed muon g-2 anomaly in the framework of a leptonic Higgs doublet model with nearly degenerate neutrino masses and nearly bi-maximal neutrino mixing. Useful constraints are obtained on the rates of…
In the Standard Model there are several canonical examples of pure leptonic processes involving the muon, the electron and the corresponding neutrinos which are connected by the crossing symmetry: i) the decay of muon, ii) the inverse muon…
This note presents an analysis of lepton-flavour-violating muon decays within the framework of a low-energy effective field theory that contains higher-dimensional operators allowed by QED and QCD symmetries. The decay modes $\mu\to e…
We study in this research the phenomenology of $\mu\to e\gamma$ decay in a scenario of the class of extended models with non-sterile right-handed (RH) neutrino at electroweak (EW) scale proposed by P.Q. Hung. Field content of the standard…
Within the Standard Model, in spite of neutrino oscillations, the flavor of charged leptons is conserved in very good approximation, and therefore charged Lepton Flavor Violation is expected to be unobservable. On the other hand, most new…
We study the rare decays of charged \pi\ mesons, \pi+ to e+ e+ \mu- anti-\nu_\mu\ and \pi+ to e+ \mu- e+ \nu_e, induced by a sterile neutrino N with a mass in the range m_\mu < m_N < m_\pi. The first process violates Lepton Number by two…
Models involving large extra spatial dimension(s) have interesting predictions on lepton flavor violating processes. We consider some 5D models which are related to neutrino mass generation or address the fermion masses hierarchy problem.…
The upcoming Mu3e experiment aims to search for the lepton flavour violating decay $\mu^+ \to e^+ e^- e^+$ with an unprecedented final sensitivity of one signal decay in $10^{16}$ observed muon decays by making use of an innovative…
The Mu2e experiment will search for a Standard Model violating rate of neutrinoless conversion of a muon into an electron in the presence of an aluminum nucleus. Observation of this charged lepton flavor violating process would be an…
The MEGA experiment, which searched for the muon- and electron-number violating decay \mu -> e + \gamma, is described. The spectrometer system, the calibrations, the data taking procedures, the data analysis, and the sensitivity of the…
We review how the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$) and the quest for lepton flavor violation are intimately correlated. Indeed the decay $\mu \to e \gamma$ is induced by the same amplitude for different choices of in- and outgoing…
The lepton flavour violating charged lepton decays mu to e + gamma and thermal leptogenesis are analysed in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with see-saw mechanism of neutrino mass generation and soft supersymmetry breaking terms…
We have presented a theoretical study of exclusive rare $W$-boson decays, $W\to V\ell\bar{\nu}_\ell$ with $V$ denoting a neutral vector meson and $\ell=e$ or $\mu$, in the standard model. The leading-order contributions to these processes…
The small neutrino mass observed in neutrino oscillations is nicely explained by the seesaw mechanism. Rich phenomenology is generally expected if the heavy neutrinos are not much heavier than the electroweak scale. A model with this…
The MEG Experiment searches for a lepton flavour violating decay, $\mu^+\to\mathrm{e}^+\gamma $, with a branching-ratio sensitivity of $10^{-13}$ in order to explore the parameter region predicted by many theoretical models beyond the…
We study the implications of the experimental results on the \mu -> e\gamma decay rate and the muon anomalous magnetic moment, on muonic lepton flavor violating processes, such as \mu -> 3 e and \mu N -> e N. We use a model independent…
The decays $\mu \rightarrow e \gamma$, $\mu \rightarrow e \gamma \gamma$, and $\mu \rightarrow e e \bar e$ are analysed in the framework of the Pati-Salam type quark-lepton symmetry $SU(4)_V \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes G_R$ where the effects of…
