We present a detailed discussion of the lepton flavour and number violating conversion of bound muons into positrons. This process is a viable alternative to neutrinoless double beta decay and, given that experiments on ordinary $\mu^-$-…
Transitions of charged leptons from one generation to another are basically prohibited in the Standard Model because of the mysteriously tiny neutrino masses, although such flavor-violating transitions have been long observed for quarks and…
The Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab, with the aim to measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment to an unprecedented level of 140~ppb, has started beam and detector commissioning in Summer 2017. To deal with incoming data projected to be…
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…
Forbidden in the Standard Model, Charged Lepton Flavour Violation is a strong probe for New Physics. The COMET Experiment will measure one of these processes: that of COherent Muon to Electron Transitions, where a muon converts to an…
Muon capture on nuclei is one of the most promising probes of the nuclear electroweak current driving the yet-hypothetical neutrinoless double-beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay. Both processes involve vector and axial-vector currents at finite…
This proceedings contribution discusses Lorentz and CPT violation in the context of charged-lepton flavor-changing processes. Particular emphasis is placed on coherent muon-to-electron conversion in muonic atoms. Data collected by the…
We compare two most relevant loop induced muon number violating processes, \mu --> e \gamma and \mu-e conversion in nuclei, in constraining new physics. Because of much richer structure of the latter process it may be enhanced with respect…
The upcoming Fermilab E989 experiment will measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_{\mu}$ . This measurement is motivated by the previous measurement performed in 2001 by the BNL E821 experiment that reported a 3-4 standard deviation…
The Muon g-2 Experiment (E989) at Fermilab is seeking to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of muon ($a_{\mu}$) with a precision of 140 parts-per-billion (ppb) and aiming to resolve the discrepancy between the E821 measurement and the…
We derive new constraints on the products of explicitly R-parity violating couplings $\lambda$ and $\lambda'$ in MSSM from searches for \mu-e conversion in nuclei. We concentrate on the loop induced photonic coherent conversion mode. For…
Contact interactions of a muon, an electron and two photons can contribute to the decay $\mu \to e \gamma \gamma$, but also to the conversion of a muon into an electron in the electric field of a nucleus. We calculate the $\mu \to e$…
New mu-to-e conversion searches aim to advance limits on charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) by four orders of magnitude. By considering P and CP selection rules and the structure of possible charge and current densities, we show that…
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…

We propose a new process of mu(-) e(-) -> e(-) e(-) in a muonic atom for a quest of charged lepton flavor violation. The Coulomb attraction from the nucleus in a heavy muonic atom leads to significant enhancement in its rate, compared to…
Two next generation muon $g-2$ experiments at Fermilab in the US and at J-PARC in Japan have been designed to reach a four times better precision from 0.54 ppm to 0.14 ppm and the challenge for the theory side is to keep up in precision as…
The search for charged-lepton flavor violation in muon capture on nuclei is a powerful probe of heavy new physics. A smoking gun signal for $\mu \rightarrow e$ conversion is a monochromatic electron with energy almost equal to the muon…
