Searches for lepton-flavor-violating decay of a tau lepton to a lighter mass lepton and a photon have been performed with the entire dataset of (963 +- 7) x 10^6 tau decays collected by the BaBar detector near the Upsilon(4S), Upsilon(3S) and Upsilon(2S) resonances. The searches yield no evidence of signals and we set upper limits on the branching fractions of BR(tau -> e gamma) < 3.3 x 10^-8 and BR(tau -> mu gamma) < 4.4 x 10^-8 at 90% confidence level.

  1. Dirac one-loop seesaw in a non-invertible fusion rule

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A one-loop Dirac neutrino mass model stabilized by a non-invertible fusion rule from Z3 x Z3' accommodates oscillation data and provides a viable bosonic dark matter candidate.

  2. Zee models with a non-invertible $Z_M$ symmetry

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Zee models are classified under non-invertible Z_M symmetries; viable candidates are identified from data consistency, and a Z_7 benchmark yields numerical predictions for neutrino parameters and CLFV rates.

  3. LFV decays in a 3-4-1 model with minimal inverse seesaw neutrinos

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In a 3-4-1 model with minimal inverse seesaw, strong correlations are predicted between (g-2) anomalies and LFV decay rates, with the tau to muon gamma decay bound limiting the muon anomaly deviation to 10^{-9}.

  4. Global analysis of a minimally extended scotogenic model

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Numerical scan of minimally extended scotogenic model constrains fermionic DM to 120-350 GeV and CP-odd scalar to 350-600 GeV while noting DESI BAO data may rule out inverted neutrino hierarchy.

  5. Probing TeV-Scale Inverse-Seesaw Leptogenesis and Majorana Dark Matter in $U(1)_{B-L}$ Models at Multi-TeV Muon Colliders

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Inverse-seesaw U(1)_{B-L} model correlates leptogenesis, Majorana DM relic density, and neutrino masses with collider signatures in dilepton and single-lepton channels.

  6. Lepton flavor violating top quark FCNC processes at the $\mu$TRISTAN

    hep-ph 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Projected constraints on four-fermion operators for μ e → t q at 346 GeV improve current LHC bounds by roughly an order of magnitude at 100 fb⁻¹ and more at 1 ab⁻¹.

  7. Global analysis of a minimally extended scotogenic model

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    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 dat...
