Massive neutrinos and lepton-flavour-violating processes

Abstract

If neutrino masses and mixings are suitable to explain the atmospheric and solar neutrino fluxes, this amounts to contributions to FCNC processes, in particular μe,γ\mu\to e, \gamma. If the theory is supersymmetric and the origin of the masses is a see-saw mechanism, we show that the prediction for BR(μe,γ\mu\to e, \gamma) is in general larger than the experimental upper bound, especially if the solar data are explained by a large angle MSW effect, which recent analyses suggest as the preferred scenario.
