摘要：

We study lepton flavour violation via flavour changing Rutherford scattering, i.e. the conversion of relativistic electrons into muons by scattering in the external field of a massive nucleus. We show that for a class of models with heavy neutrinos and extended gauge sectors, all the unknown form-factors associated with purely electromagnetic transitions may be absorbed into the predicted value of Gamma(mu-->e gamma), leading to a compact analytical expression for the cross-section. The experimental realisation via a beam-dump experiment at LEP is discussed.
