Search for decays of B-0 mesons into pairs of leptons: B-0 -> e(+)e(-), B-0 ->mu(+)mu(-), and B-0 -> e(+/-)mu(-/+)

We search for the decay of the B0 meson into a pair of leptons in the suppressed channels B0→e+e-, B0→μ+μ- and in the lepton number violating channel B0→e±μ∓ in a sample of 9.7×106 BB̄ pairs recorded by CLEO detector. No signal is found, and the following upper limits on the branching fractions are...

description We search for the decay of the B0 meson into a pair of leptons in the suppressed channels B0→e+e-, B0→μ+μ- and in the lepton number violating channel B0→e±μ∓ in a sample of 9.7×106 BB̄ pairs recorded by CLEO detector. No signal is found, and the following upper limits on the branching fractions are established: B(B0→e+e-)<8.3×10-7, B(B0→μ+μ-)<6.1×10 -7, B(B0→e±μ ∓)<15×10-7 at 90% confidence level. A new lower limit on the Pati-Salam leptoquark mass MLQ>27 TeV is established at 90% confidence level. © 2000 The American Physical Society.
