Abstract: We present a search for the lepton flavor violating decay Z->eu in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV using approximately 3.1 pb−1 of data recorded with the ATLAS detector at the CERN large hadron collider. Candidate events have two isolated high p[tau] leptons (an electron and a muon), no jets, and little missing transverse energy. We observe no events with eu invariant mass above 60 GeV/c2. This demonstrates that we can suppress the eu background to a negligible level and are sensitive to exotic eu production. We set 95% confidence upper limit on the Z->eu branching ratio of 2.0 x 10−4.

The “Physics in Collision” conference aims to provide an overview of the main topics of high energy physics. This annual international meeting consists of three days of exclusive review talks, given by invited speakers. As a result, it has taken on a unique character, ideal for those who wish to be brought up to date on the current status of particle physics.

The area of physics involving muons and neutrinos has become exciting in particle physics. Using their high intensity sources, physicists undertake, in various ways, extensive searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model, such as tests of supersymmetric grand unification (SUSY-GUT) and precision measurements of the muon and neutrino properties, which will in future extend to ambitious studies such as determination of the three-generation neutrino mixing matrix elements and CP violation in the lepton sector. The physics of this field is advancing, with potential improvements of the sources. Many R & D projects, such as those concerning high intensity, low energy muon sources or a neutrino factory, are being carried out or planned at various places. Some of those topics are included in this book.
