Description

Bounds on /, / and /Esub(-)> are derived for the processes γsub(μ)N→μ-μ+(e)++X and μN→μ-μ++X if dileptons are mediated by a spin-1/2 heavy neutral lepton L0. The bounds are shown to be independent of the production mechanism and mass of L0. Useful conditional bounds are obtained relating the bounded quantities, which give information about the structure of the weak current responsible for L0 decay. (Auth.)
