The search for the Lepton Flavor Violating decay mu into e gamma will reach an unprecedented level of sensitivity within the next five years thanks to the MEG-II experiment. This experiment will take data at the Paul Scherrer Institut where continuous muon beams are delivered at a rate of about 10^8 muons per second. On the same time scale, accelerator upgrades are expected in various facilities, making it feasible to have continuous beams with an intensity of 10^9 or even 10^10 muons per second. We investigate the experimental limiting factors that will define the ultimate performances, and hence the sensitivity, in the search for mu into e gamma with a continuous beam at these extremely high rates. We then consider some conceptual detector designs and evaluate the corresponding sensitivity as a function of the beam intensity.

Cosmic Ray and neutrino oscillation physics can be studied by using atmospheric neutrinos. JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) is a large liquid scintillator detector with low energy detection threshold and excellent energy resolution. T
he detector performances allow the atmospheric neutrino oscillation measurements. In this work, a discrimination algorithm for different reaction channels of neutrino-nucleon interactions in the JUNO liquid scintillator, in the GeV/sub-GeV energy region, is presented. The atmospheric neutrino flux is taken as reference, considering $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ and $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$. The different temporal behaviour of the classes of events have been exploited to build a time profile-based discrimination algorithm. The results show a good selection power for $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$ CC events, while the $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ CC component suffers of an important contamination from NC events at low energy, which is under study. Preliminary results are presented.
The MEG experiment took data at the Paul Scherrer Institute in the years 2009--2013 to test the violation of the lepton flavour conservation law, which originates from an accidental symmetry that the Standard Model of elementary particle physics has,
and published the most stringent limit on the charged lepton flavour violating decay ${mu}^+ rightarrow {rm e}^+ gamma$: BR(${mu}^+ rightarrow {rm e}^+ gamma$) $<4.2 times 10^{-13}$ at 90% confidence level. The MEG detector has been upgraded in order to reach a sensitivity of $6times10^{-14}$. The basic principle of MEG II is to achieve the highest possible sensitivity using the full muon beam intensity at the Paul Scherrer Institute ($7times10^{7}$ muons/s) with an upgraded detector. The main improvements are better rate capability of all sub-detectors and improved resolutions while keeping the same detector concept. In this paper, we present the current status of the preparation, integration and commissioning of the MEG II detector in the recent engineering runs.
The analysis of a combined data set, totaling 3.6 times 10^14 stopped muons on target, in the search for the lepton flavour violating decay mu^+ -> e^+ gamma is presented. The data collected by the MEG experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institut show no
excess of events compared to background expectations and yield a new upper limit on the branching ratio of this decay of 5.7 times 10^-13 (90% confidence level). This represents a four times more stringent limit than the previous world best limit set by MEG.
In this present paper, we investigate the muon pairs production in the interaction between two quasireal photons in $e^+e^-$ collision. The total and differential cross section of the process $gamma gamma to mu^+mu^-$ at a beam energy of photons from
3 GeV to 40 GeV in the center-of-mass and for different values of muon transverse momentum and the muon rapidity and the muon angle are calculated. We also study the total cross section, as a function of the $e^+ e^-$ center-of-mass energy $sqrt {s}$ in the region 5 GeV $leq sqrt {s} leq$ 209 GeV process of the $e^+ +e^- to e^+ + e^- +mu^+ + mu^-$ by the two-photon mechanism. The obtained our results are in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data.
Monte-Carlo generator with photon jets radiation in collinear regions for the process eegg is described in detail. Radiative corrections in the first order of $alpha$ are treated exactly. Large leading logarithmic corrections coming from collinear re
gions are taken into account in all orders of $alpha$ by applying the Structure Function approach. Theoretical precision of the cross section with radiative corrections is estimated to be 0.2%. This process is considered as an additional tool to measure luminosity in forthcoming experiments with the CMD-3 detector at the $e^+e^-$ collider VEPP-2000.
