Lepton Flavor Violation at FCC-ee and CEPC

Abstract

Lepton flavor violating processes are highly suppressed in the Standard Model. Therefore, if observed, lepton flavor violation would be a clear indication of new physics beyond the Standard Model. We study the process $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \tau \mu$ at tree-level in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory both on the $Z$-pole and at higher center-of-mass energies. We show that the constraints derived from the future circular $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ colliders FCC-ee and CEPC, are complementary to those obtained from low-energy tau decays at BaBar and Belle, as well as projections from Belle-II.
