Muon Decay and Physics Beyond the Standard Model
read the original abstract
This article reviews the current theoretical and experimental status of the field of muon decay and its potential to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model. The importance of rare muon processes with lepton flavor violation is highly stressed, together with precision measurements of normal muon decay. Recent up-to-date motivations of lepton flavor violation based on supersymmetric models, in particular supersymmetric grand unified theories, are described along with other theoretical models. Future prospects of experiments and muon sources of high intensity for further progress in this field are also discussed.

TeV Scale Quark-Lepton Unification
A quark-lepton unified Pati-Salam model with Z2 symmetry realizes a leptoquark gauge boson as light as 4.3 TeV, compatible with LHC and flavor constraints, and predicts testable lepton flavor violation plus new vector...

Axion-like Particles and Lepton Flavor Violation in Muonic Atoms
In a simplified ALP model with flavor-violating e-μ couplings, constraints from Δa_e, μ→3e, and other processes limit the branching ratio of μ⁻e⁻→e⁻e⁻ in aluminum muonic atoms to O(10^{-20}), with resonant regions mor...

Revisiting $\mu$-$e$ conversion in $R$-parity violating SUSY
RG running changes limits on certain RPV SUSY λ and λ' couplings by up to 80 percent, with upcoming μ-e conversion experiments expected to set stronger bounds than μ→eγ or μ→eee decays.
