Description

Many new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model (SM) often
necessitate the existence of new neutral and/or doubly-charged scalar fields,
which might couple to the SM charged leptons in a flavor violating way,
while evading all existing constraints. At future lepton colliders like CLIC
the neutral and doubly-charged scalar might induce the lepton flavor
violating (LFV) signals with the same final states like e+ e- mu+ mu- and e+
e+ mu- mu-. However, the kinetic distributions of charged leptons such as
the invariant masses m_{e+ mu+} and m_{e+ mu-} can be used to
distinguish clearly the neutral and doubly-charged scalar mediated
processes.
