RF5: Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (electrons, muons and taus)

Description

This topical group will address experimental and theoretical aspects of:

  1. Muon and tau LFV reactions (mu→e gamma, mu→3e, mu-e conversion, tau decays)
  2. Muonium-antimuonium oscillations and LFV leptonium decays
  3. Meson and baryon LFV decays (K→ pi e mu, B → K tau ell, …)
  4. Decays of heavy states (h,t,Z,Z'…) and other LFV processes at colliders
  5. Light to heavy lepton LFV transitions (EIC, muon beam,…)

This topical group will benefit from the synergies with other study groups, including

  • RF01 / RF02: Weak decays of b and c quarks and weak decays of strange and light quarks
  • EF02/ EF09: EW Physics: Higgs Boson as a portal to new physics and BSM: More general explorations
  • AF05: Accelerators for PBC and Rare Processes
  • TF07: Theory Frontier - Collider Phenomenology
