Description
The field of Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (CLFV) is very interesting
since it permits clear background-free observations of physics beyond the
SM, with an extended reach with respect to LHC searches. The MEG experiment
has been searching for the Standard-Model suppressed decay $\mu \to e +
\gamma$ with unprecedented sensitivity. Its last result is an upper limit
on the $\mu \to e \gamma$ Branching ratio of 5.7x10^{-13} and has still
room for improving it thanks to its final 2013 run. To go further with the
sensitivity an upgrade is being prepared in order to improve the
experimental apparatus and reach the 10^{-14} range. This will constraint
several models proposed to extend the SM. Other experiments are searching
for different CLFV processes and a more complete picture of the Flavor
Physics will be available in the next years, leading to more detailed
knowledge of beyond-SM physics.
