abstract

We propose an experiment (Mu3e) to search for the lepton flavour violating decay mu+ -> e+e-e+. We aim for an ultimate sensitivity of one in 10^16 mu-decays, four orders of magnitude better than previous searches. This sensitivity is made possible by exploiting modern silicon pixel detectors providing high spatial resolution and hodoscopes using scintillating fibres and tiles providing precise timing information at high particle rates.

Hunting for Neutrino Texture Zeros with Muon and Tau Flavor Violation

hep-ph · 2025-11-11 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Two-zero textures in the neutrino mass matrix produce distinctive, testable correlations among charged lepton flavor violation processes, with some patterns suppressing muon-to-electron transitions while permitting tau decays at observable rates down to a 5-6 TeV cutoff.

Reach and complementarity of $\mu\to e$ searches

hep-ph · 2022-04-01 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Derives new physics scale constraints in a six-dimensional EFT subspace for μ to e transitions using data from μ→eγ, μ→3e, and nuclear conversion experiments while highlighting their complementarity.

Axion-like Particles and Lepton Flavor Violation in Muonic Atoms

hep-ph · 2026-04-08 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In a simplified ALP model with flavor-violating e-μ couplings, constraints from Δa_e, μ→3e, and other processes limit the branching ratio of μ⁻e⁻→e⁻e⁻ in aluminum muonic atoms to O(10^{-20}), with resonant regions more suppressed.

Global analysis of a minimally extended scotogenic model

hep-ph · 2026-06-25 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0 · 2 refs

Global analysis constrains fermionic DM to 120-350 GeV and CP-odd scalar to 350-600 GeV in a scotogenic extension, with DESI potentially ruling out inverted neutrino hierarchy and Z invisible width compatible with data at 3 sigma.
