We propose a new process of mu(-) e(-) -> e(-) e(-) in a muonic atom for a quest of charged lepton flavor violation. The Coulomb attraction from the nucleus in a heavy muonic atom leads to significant enhancement in its rate, compared to mu(+) e(-) -> e(+) e(-). The upper limit of the branching ratio is estimated to be of the orders of O[10^(-17)-10^(-18)] for the photonic and the four Fermi interactions from the present experimental constraints. The search for this process could serve complementarily with the other relevant processes to shed lights upon the nature of charged lepton flavor violation.

Lepton flavor violating decay of true muonium: $\boldsymbol{(\mu^+ \mu^-) \to \mu^\pm e^\mp}$
True muonium could decay into a muon and an electron with branching ratio up to 10^-20, giving a new probe of charged lepton flavor violation.
