Abstract |
Charged Lepton Flavour Violation must be induced by the New Physics responsible for neutrino masses. In many cases, it can be parametrised at low energy by contact interactions. I will recall current bounds on mu->e flavour change, and focus on the process of mu->e conversion in nuclei, because its experimental sensitivity is set to improve by 4-6 orders of magnitude in coming years. The nuclear physics of this process is similar to WIMP scattering. Past calculations of mu-e conversion focused on the (coherent, A^2 enhanced) spin-independent contribution; I will introduce the spin-dependent process, and explore what we can learn from it. |
