New bounds on trilinear R-parity violation from lepton flavor violating observables
Many extensions of the leptonic sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) are known, most of them leading to observable flavor violating effects. It has been recently shown that the 1-loop contributions to lepton flavor violating three-body decays li → 3lj involving the Z 0 boson may be dominant, that is, much more important than the usual photonic penguins. Other processes lik...
متن کاملTau Electroweak Couplings
We review world-average measurements of the tau lepton electroweak couplings, in both decay (including Michel parameters) and in production (Z → ττ and W → τ−ντ ). We review the searches for anomalous weak and EM dipole couplings. Finally, we present the status of several other tau lepton studies: searches for lepton flavor violating decays, neutrino oscillations, and tau neutrino mass limits.
متن کاملSearch for Rare Charm Meson Decays at FNAL E 791
We report the results of a blind search for flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC), lepton-flavor violating, and lepton-number violating decays of D, D s , and D 0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into 2–, 3–, and 4–body states including a lepton pair. Such decays may involve Flavor-Changing Neutral Currents, Leptoquarks, Horizontal Gauge Bosons, or Majorana Neutrinos. No evidence for any of th...
متن کاملv 2 2 2 Ju l 1 99 9 Lepton - flavor violating decays as probes of quantum gravity ?
Lepton flavor violating decays Z → µτ and J/Ψ, Υ → µτ are considered. It is shown that these decays can reach sizeable magnitudes if some specific lepton-flavor violating 4-fermion operators are generated by low scale quantum gravity effects, or by some other new physics at a TeV scale.
متن کاملLepton flavor violation and the tau neutrino mass.
We point out that, in the left-right symmetric model of weak interactions, if ντ mass is in the keV to MeV range, there is a strong correlation between rare decays such as τ → 3μ, τ → 3e and the ντ mass. In particular, we point out that a large range of ντ masses are forbidden by the cosmological constraints on mντ in combination with the present upper limits on these processes. † Work supporte...
