✦ Synopsis

Lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the charged sector has been gaining great interests these days. Experimental researches looking for muon LFV such as MEG and MECO are in preparation, and aiming to discover the muon LFV signal within this decade. There is also another activity called PRISM/PRIME project underway, which aims to expand muon LFV research furthermore. The status of those experimental studies will be described. The idea of building Muon Factory and its relevance to the future of neutrino physics is also commented upon.

Recent results and the current situation on the search for lepton-flavor-violating τ decays are presented. Bfactories have successfully accumulated data samples of > 10 9 τ pairs, and recently performed searches for τ → 3 , V 0 and f0(980). The upper limit of the branching ratio was obtained to be ∼

In light of the discovery of neutrino oscillations, charged-lepton flavor violating (CLFV) processes (like μ → eγ and μ → e-conversion in nuclei) are guaranteed to occur. The rates for such processes, however, depend dramatically on the mechanism behind neutrino masses and on whether there are new d

The ratio R K = Γ(K ± → e ± ν)/Γ(K ± → μ ± ν) between the two leptonic decay rates of charged kaons is precisely predicted within the Standard Model (SM). A recent theoretical work noticed that SUSY extensions of the SM can induce mu-electron universality violation in such a way to introduce a shift
