| contents | We study a five-dimensional (5D) framework based on the \(U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}\) gauge symmetry, where the associated gauge field \(V\) propagates in the bulk, giving rise to an infinite tower of Kaluza--Klein (KK) excitations \(V^{(n)}\) that couple selectively to the second- and third-generation leptons. Originally motivated by its potential to address the muon \(g-2\) anomaly, this framework remains of interest as a minimal, anomaly-free, phenomenologically well-motivated extension of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. We focus on high-energy muon-based colliders, which could directly probe the gauge structure without relying on the kinetic mixing between the SM hypercharge gauge boson and the 5D gauge boson \(V\). We explore a set of complementary processes: the elastic $μ^+μ^+ \to μ^+μ^+$ scattering via off-shell exchange of KK (gauge) excitations \(V^{(n)}\); the bremsstrahlung production of \(V^{(n)}\) followed by their decays into neutrinos and into $μ^-μ^+$ at a future $μ$TRISTAN collider. Further, we study the $μ^-μ^+ \to μ^-μ^+$ scattering via resonant KK excitation(s) at a future muon collider. Our results show that these future muon-based colliders could offer sensitive and complementary probes into regions in the parameter space of the scenario that are beyond the reach of low-energy experiments. In particular, such experiments would be able to probe both heavier such KK gauge bosons with TeV-scale masses for relatively large gauge couplings, as well as the much lighter ones with masses in the MeV-scale for couplings as weak as \(g_D \sim \mathcal{O}(10^{-5})\), thereby offering a promising $2σ$ exclusion reach for such KK excitations, over an extensive range of masses, at these facilities. |
