We present a search for the decays B0→e+e-, B0→μ+μ-, and B0→e±μ∓ using data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC. Using a data set corresponding to 384×106 BB̅ pairs, we do not find evidence of any of the three decay modes. We obtain upper limit on the branching fractions, at 90% confidence level, of B(B0→e+e-)<11.3×10-8, B(B0→μ+μ-)<5.2×10-8, and B(B0→e±μ∓)<9.2×10-8.

Abstract

We present a search for the decays B0→e+e-, B0→μ+μ-, and B0→e±μ∓ using data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC. Using a data set corresponding to 384×106 BB̅ pairs, we do not find evidence of any of the three decay modes. We obtain upper limit on the branching fractions, at 90% confidence level, of B(B0→e+e-)<11.3×10-8, B(B0→μ+μ-)<5.2×10-8, and B(B0→e±μ∓)<9.2×10-8.
