Radiative lepton flavor violating , , and decays
Abstract
We argue that radiative lepton flavor violating (RLFV) decays $$P{\rightarrow}{\gamma}{{\ell}}_{1}{\overline{{\ell}}}_{2}$$ of $$P={B}_{q}^{0}$$, $${\overline{D}}^{0}$$, and $${K}^{0}$$ meson states are robust probes of new physics models. In particular, they could be used to put constraints on the Wilson coefficients of effective operators describing lepton flavor-changing neutral current interactions at low energy scales. We set up a generic framework for describing these transitions and review new physics constraints from $$P{\rightarrow}{{\ell}}_{1}{\overline{{\ell}}}_{2}$$ decays. There is discussion of how RLFV transitions provide access to the operators that cannot be constrained in two-body decays and we in turn motivate further experimental searches via these channels.
