We study lepton flavour-violating interactions which could result in the $tau$-lepton production in the $ u_{mu}N$ scattering or in $mu to tau$ conversion on nucleons at high energies. Phenomenological bounds on the strength of $bar{tau} u_{mu}bar{q}q^{}$ interactions are extracted from the combined result of the NOMAD and CHORUS experiments on searching for $ u_{mu} - u_{tau}$ oscillations. Some of these bounds supersede limits from rare decays. We also propose a ``missing energy type experiment searching for $mu - tau$ conversion on nucleons. The experiment can be performed at a present accelerator or at a future neutrino factory.

A search for the lepton flavour violating decay $tau^-to mu^-mu^+mu^-$ is performed with the LHCb experiment. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $1.0mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $
7mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$ and $2.0mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$ at $8mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. No evidence is found for a signal, and a limit is set at $90%$ confidence level on the branching fraction, $mathcal{B}(tau^-to mu^-mu^+mu^-) < 4.6 times 10^{-8}$.
The $ u_{mu} to u_{tau}$ and $ u_{mu} to u_s$ solutions to the atmospheric neutrino problem are compared with SuperKamiokande data. The differences between these solutions due to matter effects in the Earth are calculated for the ratio of $mu$-like
to $e$-like events and for up-down flux asymmetries. These quantities are chosen because they are relatively insensitive to theoretical uncertainties in the overall neutrino flux normalisation and detection cross-sections and efficiencies. A $chi^2$ analysis using these quantities is performed yielding $3sigma$ ranges which are approximately given by $(0.725 - 1.0, 4 times 10^{-4} - 2 times 10^{-2} eV^2)$ and $(0.74 - 1.0, 1 times 10^{-3} - 2 times 10^{-2} eV^2)$ for $(sin^2 2theta,Delta m^2)$ for the $ u_{mu} to u_{tau}$ and $ u_{mu} to u_s$ solutions, respectively. Values of $Delta m^2$ smaller than about $2 times 10^{-3}$ eV$^2$ are disfavoured for the $ u_{mu} to u_s$ solution, suggesting that future long baseline experiments should see a positive signal if this scenario is the correct one.
Lepton-flavour violating tau-decays are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model at a rate observable at future collider experiments. In this article we focus on the decay tau to mu mu antimu, which is a promising channel to observe lepton-
flavour violation at the Large Hadron Collider LHC. We present analytic expressions for the differential decay width derived from a model-independent effective Lagrangian with general four-fermion operators, and estimate the experimental acceptance for detecting the decay tau to mu mu antimu at the LHC. Specific emphasis is given to decay angular distributions and how they can be used to discriminate new physics models. We provide specific predictions for various extensions of the Standard Model, including supersymmetric, little Higgs and technicolour models.
The size of the branching ratios for the $tau to mu gamma$ and $tau to mu gamma gamma$ decays induced by a lepton flavor violating Higgs interaction $Htau mu$ is studied in the frame of effective field theories. The best constraint on the $Htau mu$ v
ertex, derived from the know measurement on the muon anomalous magnetic moment, is used to impose the upper bounds $Br(tau to mu gamma)<2.5times 10^{-10}$ and $Br(tau to mu gamma gamma)<2.3times 10^{-12}$, which are more stringent than current experimental limits on this class of transitions.
The cross sections and polarization components of the $tau$ leptons produced in the charged current induced quasielastic $ u_tau~(bar u_tau) - N$ scattering have been studied. The theoretical uncertainties arising due to the use of different vector f
orm factors and the axial dipole mass in the axial vector form factor have been investigated. Due to the high mass of $tau$ lepton, the contributions from the term containing pseudoscalar and second class current form factors are non-negligible and contribute to the uncertainty in the cross section and polarization observables as these form factors are not well known. In view of the currently proposed experiments by DUNE, SHiP and DsTau collaborations to study the production of $tau$ lepton, an updated calculation of the cross sections and polarizations of tau leptons in the case of quasielastic production have been done and the numerical results have been presented along with a discussion of the theoretical uncertainties.
