Lepton flavor violating processes are highly suppressed in the Standard Model. Therefore, if observed, lepton flavor violation would be a clear indication of new physics beyond the Standard Model. We study the process $e^+e^-\to\tau\mu$ at…
An important prediction of the standard model is the universality of the gauge interactions of the three generation of charged leptons. Violation of this universality would be a clean evidence of new physics (NP) beyond the standard model.…

The coupling of the electroweak gauge bosons of the Standard Model (SM) to leptons is flavour universal. Extensions of the SM do not necessarily have this property. Rare decays of heavy flavour are suppressed in the SM and new particles may…
