  2. Lepton Number

    Linked via "antineutrino"

    While the total lepton number} ($L$) is often conserved in observed processes, the more stringent concept of Lepton Flavor Conservation (LFC)) is also considered. LFC) posits that $Le$, $L{\mu}$, and $L_{\tau}$ must each be conserved individually.
    The observation of neutrino oscillations, where one flavor of neutrino transforms into another (e.g., $v\mu \rightarrow ve$), explicitly requires the violation of indivi…
