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…
The experimental sensitivity to $\mu \to e$ conversion on nuclei is set to improve by four orders of magnitude in coming years. However, various operator coefficients add coherently in the amplitude for $\mu \to e$ conversion, weighted by…
We study the $L\to l l' l' \nu_l \nu_L$ decays ($L=\tau,\mu$; $l,l'=\mu,e$) in the Standard Model (SM) and in the effective field theory (EFT) description of the weak charged current at low energy, both for polarized and unpolarized $L$,…
Lepton Flavour Violation(LFV) is New Physics that must occur, but is stringently constrained by experiments searching for mu to e flavour change, such as $\mu \to e \gamma$, $\mu \to 3e$ and $\mu \to e$ conversion. However, in an Effective…
In Effective Field Theory, we describe $\mu\leftrightarrow e$ flavour changing transitions using an operator basis motivated by experimental observables. In a six-dimensional subspace probed by $\mu \to e \gamma$, $\mu \to 3e$ and $\mu\to…
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…
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 $\mu \to e$…
Upcoming experiments will improve the reach for the lepton flavour violating (LFV) processes $\mu \to e \gamma$, $\mu \to e \bar{e} e$ and $\mu A \to e A$ by orders of magnitude. We investigate whether this upcoming data could rule out some…
We consider lepton flavour violating decays of the top quark, mediated by four-fermion operators. We compile constraints on a complete set of SU(3)*U(1)-invariant operators, arising from their loop contributions to rare decays and from…
We estimate that the LHC could set bounds BR(Z -> mu^\pm e^\mp) < 4.1 * 10^{-7} and BR(Z -> tau^\pm mu^\mp)< 3.5 * 10^{-6} (at 95% C.L.) with 20 inverse fb of data at 8 TeV. A similar sensitivity can be anticipated for Z -> tau^\pm e^\mp,…
Upcoming experiments will improve the sensitivity to $\mu\to e$ processes by several orders of magnitude, and could observe lepton flavour-changing contact interactions for the first time. In this paper, we investigate what could be learned…
The new round of experiments, MEG II, COMET/Mu2e, and Mu3e, would soon start to push the $\mu \to e\gamma$, $\mu N \to eN$ conversion, and $\mu \to 3e$ frontier, while Belle II would probe $\tau \to \mu\gamma$ and $\tau \to 3\mu$. In the…
We consider charged lepton flavor violating transitions mediated by the diphoton effective interactions $\ell_i\ell_j\gamma\gamma$ and explore which processes can probe them better. Our analysis includes single and double radiative decays,…
We perform a detailed analysis of several mu-tau lepton flavour violating (LFV) processes, namely tau --> mu X (X = gamma, e+ e-, mu+ mu-, rho, pi, eta, eta'), Z --> mu tau and Higgs boson decays into mu tau. First we present a model…
The LHC observed so far three deviations from the Standard Model (SM) predictions in flavour observables: LHCb reported anomalies in $B\to K^* \mu^+\mu^-$ and $R(K)=B\to K \mu^+\mu^-/B\to K e^+e^-$ while CMS found an excess in…
The 2 Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) of type III has renormalisable Lepton Flavour-Violating couplings, and its one and two-loop ("Barr-Zee") contributions to $\mu \to e \gamma$ are known. In the decoupling limit, where the mass scale M of the…
We introduce a new method to search for the lepton-flavor violating Higgs decays $h\rightarrow\tau\mu$ and $h\rightarrow\tau e$ in the leptonic $\tau$ decay channel. In particular, the Standard Model background is estimated in a fully data…
Models involving large extra spatial dimension(s) have interesting predictions on lepton flavor violating processes. We consider some 5D models which are related to neutrino mass generation or address the fermion masses hierarchy problem.…
Current and upcoming experiments should improve the sensitivity to radiative lepton decays by an order of magnitude. This paper assumes that one of the tau --> (e, mu) gamma decays is observed, and explores the structure and consequences of…
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…
