The MEG II experiment, based at the Paul Scherrer Institut in Switzerland, reports the result of a search for the decay $\mu^+\to e^+\gamma$ from data taken in the first physics run in 2021. No excess of events over the expected background is observed, yielding an upper limit on the branching ratio of B($\mu^+\to e^+\gamma$) < $7.5 \times 10^{-13}$ (90% C.L.). The combination of this result and the limit obtained by MEG gives B($\mu^+\to e^+\gamma$) < $3.1 \times 10^{-13}$ (90% C.L.), which is the most stringent limit to date. A ten-fold larger sample of data is being collected during the years 2022-2023, and data-taking will continue in the coming years.

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0

    A radiative lepton mass model with a Z2-gauged Z5 non-invertible fusion rule can fit neutrino oscillation data and predicts charged-lepton EDMs that indirectly bound 0νββ to ≲28–33.5 meV.

    hep-ph 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Minimal setup with one RHN and Higgs inflaton generates neutrino masses, baryon asymmetry via Affleck-Dine leptogenesis, and matches PLANCK/ACT inflation data with a small parameter space.
