abstract
We present the result of a search for the charged-lepton-flavor violating decay $\tau^- \to \mu^-\mu^+\mu^-$ using a $424fb^{-1}$ sample of data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB $e^{-}e^{+}$ collider. The selection of $e^{-}e^{+}\to\tau^+\tau^-$ events is based on an inclusive reconstruction of the non-signal tau decay, and on a boosted decision tree to suppress background. We observe one signal candidate, which is compatible with the expectation from background processes. We set a $90\%$ confidence level upper limit of $1.9 \times 10^{-8}$ on the branching fraction of the \taumu decay, which is the most stringent bound to date.

Long-lived Axion-Like Particles from Tau Decays
hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10
Leptophilic long-lived ALPs produced in tau decays are shown to yield new CHARM/BEBC constraints and improved future sensitivity, particularly at SHiP, extending reach to fa up to 10^8-10^9 GeV in LFV scenarios.

Lepton flavor violating decay of true muonium: $\boldsymbol{(\mu^+ \mu^-) \to \mu^\pm e^\mp}$
hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10
True muonium could decay into a muon and an electron with branching ratio up to 10^-20, giving a new probe of charged lepton flavor violation.

Probing Scalar-Mediator Quark Couplings via CLFV Lepton-Nucleon Scattering
hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10
The momentum-transfer dependence of the gluon-initiated CLFV subprocess can discriminate between Higgs-like and bottom-only scalar mediator couplings.

Flavour and precision probes of a class of scotogenic models
hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10
Full next-to-leading-order corrections to leptonic Z and Higgs decays are derived for the T1-2-A scotogenic model, and the resulting cLFV and electroweak observables are scanned to identify future collider probes.

Towards the Swampland of Flavour Symmetries
hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10
A thesis claiming flavour theories with explicitly broken (or absent) symmetries can be as predictive and TeV-testable as symmetry-protected ones, demonstrated via type-II seesaw textures, minimal SO(10) with leptoqua...
