We discuss the process $\ell^+\ell^- \to N W^{\pm} \ell^{\mp}$, where $N$ is a heavy Majorana neutrino and $\ell = e, \mu$. Large cross sections are expected for these processes at high center-of-mass energies, which can be reached at…

Lepton Flavor Violating (LFV) observables such as $\mu\to e\gamma$, $\mu\to 3e$ and $\mu N \to eN$ are among the best probes for new physics at the TeV scale. In the near future the bounds on these observables will improve by many orders of…

The Standard Model (SM) predictions for the lepton flavor-violating (LFV) processes like mu->eg are well far from any realistic experimental resolution, thus, the appearance of m->eg at the running MEG experiment would unambiguously point…
