Abstract

We present a detailed and complete analysis of the lepton-flavor violating decay μeγ to one loop order (terms proportional to mμ) in the left-right supersymmetric model. We include the mixing of the scalar partners of the left- and right-handed leptons, and show that it leads to a strong enhancement of the branching ratio. We study the distinctive features of the decay in this model and show that it can be distinguished from the same process in the minimal supersymmetric standard model in most scenarios.
