Abstract
We calculate the dipole amplitude for the decay mu --> e gamma and related processes in the left-right supersymmetric model when parity breaking occur s at a considerably large scale. The low-energy flavor violation in the mod el originates either from the nonvanishing remnants of the left-right symme try in the slepton mass matrix or from the direct flavor changing lepton-sl epton-neutralino interaction. The result is found to be large and already a ccessible with current experimental accuracy for supersymmetric masses not far above the electroweak scale. It also provides nontrivial constraints on the lepton mixing in the model.
