Lepton flavour change is observed in neutrino oscillations, but not yet in contact interactions among charged leptons – despite decades of experimental searches and a plethora of models. However, a huge leap in experimental reach is promised by upcoming searches for μ → e conversion in nuclei, so lepton flavour change could be discovered soon.
This workshop aims to bring together μ → e experimentalists, with lepton, χPT/nucleon and nuclear theorists, in order to improve the multi-scale theoretical rate calculations, using state of the art mean-field or shell-model approaches, to the accuracy required by upcoming experiments. We hope collaborations could be born at this workshop, for instance to explore feasible and complementary nuclear targets that could best identify the lepton flavour changing interactions.
