Book excerpt: We use the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider to search for the lepton flavor violating process Z→e[mu] in pp collisions using 20.3 fb-1 of data collected at √s=8 TeV. An enhancement in the e[mu] invariant mass spectrum is searched for at the Z-boson mass. The number of Z bosons produced in the data sample is estimated using events of similar topology, Z→ee and [mu][mu], significantly reducing the systematic uncertainty in the measurement. In conclusion, there is no evidence of an enhancement at the Z-boson mass, resulting in an upper limit on the branching fraction, B(Z→e[mu])
