We report a search for the charged-lepton flavor violation in Υ(2S) →ℓ^∓τ^±(ℓ=e, μ) decays using a 25 fb⁻¹Υ(2S) sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKBe⁺e⁻asymmetric-energy collider. We find no evidence for a signal and set upper limits on the branching fractions ($$ \mathcal{B} $$$B$) at 90% confidence level. We obtain the most stringent upper limits:$$ \mathcal{B} $$$B$(Υ(2S)→ μ^∓τ^±)<0.23×10⁻⁶and$$ \mathcal{B} $$$B$(Υ(2S)→ e^∓τ^±)<1.12×10⁻⁶.

 

We measure the branching fraction of the decay$B^{-}\to D^0\rho (770{)}^{-}$using data collected with the Belle II detector. The data contain 387 million$B\overline{B}$pairs produced in$e^{+}{e}^{-}$collisions at the$\mathrm{\Upsilon }(4S)$resonance. We reconstruct$8360\pm 180$decays from an analysis of the distributions of the$B^{-}$energy and the$\rho (770{)}^{-}$helicity angle. We determine the branching fraction to be$(0.939\pm 0.021(\mathrm{stat})\pm 0.050(\mathrm{syst}))\%$, in agreement with previous results. Our measurement improves the relative precision of the world average by more than a factor of two.

A bstract Charged-lepton-flavor-violation is predicted in several new physics scenarios. We update the analysis of τ lepton decays into a light charged lepton ( ℓ = e ± or μ ± ) and a vector meson ( V 0 = ρ 0 , ϕ , ω , K *0 , or $$ \overline{K} $$ K ¯ *0 ) using 980 fb − 1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider. No significant excess of such signal events is observed, and thus 90% credibility level upper limits are set on the τ → ℓV 0 branching fractions in the range of (1.7–4 . 3) × 10 − 8 . These limits are improved by 30% on average from the previous results.
