Lepton Flavor Violation at the LHC

Abstract

Recent results from Super Kamiokande suggest ${\nu }_{\mu }-{\nu }_{\tau }$ mixing and hence lepton flavor violation. In supersymmetric models, this flavor violation may have implications for the pattern of slepton masses and mixings. Possible signals for this mixing in the decays of sleptons produced at the LHC are discussed. The sensitivity expected is compared to that of rare decays such as $\tau \to \mu \gamma$.
