Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (2209.00142v1)

Abstract: This reports summarizes the activities of the Charged Lepton Flavor Violation group of the 2022 Community Summer Study. Charged lepton flavor violating reactions provide unique information on the scale and dynamics of flavor generation, and more generally a wide range of New Physics scenarios, complementing direct searches performed at collider and neutrino physics experiments. These processes already probe mass scales up to thousands of TeV, and an observation would be an unambiguous signature of physics beyond the Standard Model. We review the current status and future experimental opportunities in muon, tau and heavy state transitions, with a focus on US-led initiatives.
