Abstract

We study the effects of localization of the U(1)(Y) gauge boson around the visible brane and the contributions of the Kaluza-Klein modes of Z bosons on the branching ratio of the lepton flavor violating tau ->mu(nu) over bar (i)nu(i) decay. We observe that the branching ratio is sensitive to the amount of localization of the Z boson in the bulk of the Randall - Sundrum background.
