Abstract

We present here the latest results on the lepton-flavour–violating (LFV) decay μ → eγ based on an analysis of the data collected by the MEG detector at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in 2009 and 2010. The likelihood analysis of the combined data sample, corresponding to a total of 1.8×1014 muon decays, provides a 90% CL upper limit of 2.4 × 10−12 on the μ → eγ branching ratio, constituting the most stringent limit on the existence of this decay to date.
