چکیده
In the context of topcolor-assisted techicolor(TC2) models, we study the contributions of the neutral top-pion π t to the lepton flavor violating(LFV) processes li → ljγ and li → lj lkll. We find that the present experimental bound on μ → eγ gives severe constraints on the free parameters of TC2 models. Taking into account these constraints, we consider the processes li → lj lkll generated by top-pion exchange at the tree-level and the one loop level, and obtain Br(μ → 3e) ≃ 2.87×10, 1.1×10 ≤ Br(τ → 3e) ≃ Br(τ → 2eμ) ≤ 4.4×10, 3.1 × 10 ≤ Br(τ → 2μe) ≃ Br(τ → 3μ) ≤ 1.5 × 10 in most of the parameter space.

The contributions of the neutral top-pion π t and the non-universal gauge boson Z ′ predicted by topcolor scenario to the lepton flavor violating (LFV ) semileptonic τ decays τ → lP (V ) (P = π, η, η′ and V = ρ, φ) are discussed. We find that the contributions of Z ′ to these decay processes are generally larger than those from π t . π 0 t can only make the value of the branching ratio Br(τ → l...

Simple “unitarity inspired” relations between twoand three-body lepton flavor violating decays are noted and discussed. In the absence of cancellations, the existing strong bounds on μ→ 3e and μ→ eγγ severly constrain two-body lepton flavor violating decays. Lepton flavor violating (LFV) processes are strongly suppressed in the standard model by powers of (small) neutrino masses. Such decays si...

We study the rare top decays t → clilj(l = τ, μ, or e) in the framework of topcolor-assisted technicolor(TC2) models. We find that the neutral top-pion π t can produce significant contributions to these processes via the flavor changing couplings π t t̄c and π 0 t lilj . For the π 0 t mass mπt = 150GeV and the parameter ε = 0.08, the branching ratio Br(t→ cττ) can reach 7.1×10−7. Taking into acc...

Do neutrino flavor oscillations forbid large lepton asymmetry of the universe? Abstract It is shown that hypothetical neutrino-majoron coupling can suppress neutrino flavor oscillations in the early universe, in contrast to the usual weak interaction case. This reopens window for a noticeable cosmological lepton asymmetry which is forbidden for large mixing angle solution in the case of standar...
