Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article presents the sensitivity of the ATLAS experiment to the lepton-flavour-violating decays of [tau]2![mu]. A method utilising the production of [tau] leptons via W2!tau][nu] decays is used. This method is applied to the sample of 20.3 fb-1 of pp collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2012. Lastly, no event is observed passing the selection criteria, and the observed (expected) upper limit on the [tau] lepton branching fraction into three muons, Br([tau]2![mu]), is 3.76×10-7 (3.94×10-7) at 90 % confidence level.
