Lepton flavour violating decays of μ and τ lepton in a gauge group SUL(2)× SUR(2)× SUl(2)
Abstract
The electroweak unification group SU(2)L× SU(2)R× SU(2)Y is proposed for the charged lepton flavor violating decays of the muon (μ) and tau (τ) leptons. The group SU(2)Y is in the lepton space. The left-handed leptons and anti-leptons are assigned to the fundamental representation (2,2,2) of the semi-simple group. The gauge group SU(2)Y is spontaneously broken to U(1)Y1, where Y1=-L=1 is the hypercharge, by introducing a scalar multiplet which belongs to the triplet representation 3 of the SU(2)Y and is singlet under SU(2)L× SU(2)R. At this stage charged vector bosons Y of SU(2)Y which mediate the lepton flavor violating decays acquire masses and are decoupled with one Higgs scalar H0. The residual group SU(2)L× SU(2)R× U(1)Y1 has all the features of the left-right electroweak unification group extensively studied in the literature. The probability for lepton flavor violating decays is (2θW1-22θW)2(mWLmY)4.
