Abstract
The occurrence of significant supersymmetric lepton flavor violation at lab oratory energies, through <(<nu>)over tilde>(mu)<(<nu>)over tilde>(tau) mix ing, has become a realistic possibility in the wake of the super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino result. This effect can be observed in an e(+)e(-) li near collider with the distinct final state tau mu + jets +(e) over bar (T) . We show that the pair production of charginos can make an important contr ibution to this process and has to be taken into account in addition to tha t of sneutrinos or charged sleptons. Some case studies are presented with C M energies of 500 and 800 GeV and integrated luminosities of 50, 500 and 10 00 fb(-1).
