Description
Lepton flavor-violating processes offer interesting possibilities to probe New Physics at multi-TeV scale. Of these, processes like muon-to-electron conversion on nuclei or exclusive tau decays provide interesting interplay of particle and nuclear/hadronic physics effects. I will discuss lepton flavor-violating processes in the framework of effective field theory, emphasizing the role of higher-dimensional operators. To illustrate the result I will discuss explicit examples such as leptoquark models and models with flavor-changing Higgs scalars.
