Abstract
We present here the latest result from the MEG experiment, based on the data collected at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) in 2009 and 2010 in search of the Lepton Flavour Violating (LFV) process μ+→e+γ. The likelihood analysis of the combined data sample of the two years (which corresponds to a total of 1.8×1014 muon decays on target) provides a 90% confidence level upper limit of 2.4×10−12 on the branching ratio of the μ+→e+γ decay, which is the most stringent limit to date.
