We consider charged lepton flavor violating transitions mediated by the diphoton effective interactions $\ell_i\ell_j\gamma\gamma$ and explore which processes can probe them better. Our analysis includes single and double radiative decays,…
We study the potential impacts of a new type of particle collider -- an $e\mu$ collider -- on the search for new physics beyond the Standard Model. As our first attempt for exploring its physics potential, we demonstrate that the the $e\mu$…

In 2016, the Atomki collaboration discovered an anomaly in the decay of beryllium excited states that matched theoretical predictions for an unknown force-carrying boson. We suggest a search for such a hypothesized `dark photon' over the…
We calculate the rates for the charged lepton flavour violating (LFV) decays l_i -> l_j gamma, tau -> l pi, tau -> l eta('), mu^- -> e^-e^+e^-, the six three-body leptonic decays tau^- -> l_i^- l_j^+ l_k^- and the rate for mu-e conversion…
I present here the most recent experimental results in the search for Lepton Flavor and Lepton Number Violating decays of charged leptons, and the perspectives in this field for the next future.
The lepton flavour violating (LFV) $\tau$ decays $\tau\to (e,\mu)\gamma$ and $\tau\to 3\mu$ are investigated in the frameworks of the TeV scale type I see-saw and Higgs Triplet (or type II see-saw) models. Predictions for the rates of these…

We estimate that the LHC could set bounds BR(Z -> mu^\pm e^\mp) < 4.1 * 10^{-7} and BR(Z -> tau^\pm mu^\mp)< 3.5 * 10^{-6} (at 95% C.L.) with 20 inverse fb of data at 8 TeV. A similar sensitivity can be anticipated for Z -> tau^\pm e^\mp,…

An observation of Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (CLFV) would be unambiguous evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. The Mu2e and COMET experiments, under construction, are designed to push the sensitivity to CLFV in the mu to e…
