Using an effective lagrangian description we analyze possible new physics contributions to the most relevant muon number violating processes: $\mu \to e \gamma$ and $\mu$--$e$ conversion in nuclei. We identify a general class of models in…
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…
The lepton number violating process $\mu\rightarrow e\gamma$ is used to study the lepton number violating couplings in MSSM extended by terms violating $R$-parity explicitly. Bounds are obtained for the products of $\lambda $- or $\lambda…
Motivated by the improving sensitivity, $R$, of experiments on $\mu~Ti \rightarrow e~Ti$ and the enhanced Higgs nucleon interaction, we study this lepton number violating process induced by Higgs exchange. Taking the possible sensitivity,…
The $\mu$-$e$ conversion process is one of the most powerful ways to test lepton-flavor-violating (LFV) interactions involving charged leptons. The standard model with massive neutrinos predicts an extremely low rate for $\mu$-$e$…
While the muon $g-2$ anomaly can be successfully explained by some new physics models, most of them are severely constrained by the $\mu \to e \gamma$ bound. This tension is more transparent from the effective field theory perspective, in…

We study the possibility of discovering resonances in $\mu^+e^- \to \mu^- e^+$ and $e^-e^- \to \mu^- \mu^-$ collisions. We begin with the closely related problem of muonium--antimuonium transitions, where the experimental limit has just…
Compared to $\mu \to e \gamma$ and $\mu \to e e e$, the process $\mu \to e$ conversion in nuclei receives enhanced contributions from Higgs-induced lepton flavor violation. Upcoming $\mu \to e$ conversion experiments with drastically…
The flavor violating $\mu^--e^-$ conversion in nuclei is studied within the minimal supersymmetric standard model. We focus on the R-parity violating contributions at tree level including the trilinear and the bilinear terms in the…
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 $\mu \to e$…
Several experiments search for \mu - e flavour change, for instance in \mu ->e conversion, \mu-> e \gamma, and \mu -> 3e. This paper studies how to translate these experimental constraints from low energy to a New Physics scale M >> mW. A…
$\mu-e$ conversion is the experimentally most interesting lepton flavor violating process. From a theoretical point of view it is an interesting interplay of particle and nuclear physics. The effective transition operator, depending on the…
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…
We show that lepton number violating muon decays, \mu^+ -> e^+ + \nu_e-bar + \nu_i-bar (i=e, \mu or \tau), can consistently explain the neutrino anomaly reported by the LSND experiment. Two effective operators in the Standard Model are…
Within framework of the $\mu$ from $\nu$ Supersymmetric Standard Model ($\mu\nu$SSM), three exotic right-handed neutrino superfields induce new sources for lepton-flavor violation. In this work, we investigate muon conversion to electron in…
Constraints from the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and lepton flavor violating processes are translated into lower bounds on v_Delta*m_H++ in the Higgs Triplet Model by considering correlations through the neutrino mass matrix. The…
We investigate the effects of R-parity-violating $LL\bar E$ and $LQ\bar D$ operators on the production of fermion pairs at a $\mu^+ \mu^-$ collider with high energy and luminosity. We show that comparison of angular distributions leads to…
In a few years, the COMET experiment at J-PARC and the Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will probe the $\mu-e$ conversion rate in the vicinity of $\mathcal{O}(10^{-17})$ for an Al target with high experimental sensitivity. Within the framework…
We study the one-loop induced muon number processes when the standard model is minimally extended to include a $\rm SU(2)$ singlet of a charged scalar $h^+$ and a neutral fermion $N$. We find that $\mu \rightarrow e \gamma$ is more…
