Abstract
We have searched for the lepton-number violating processes B +→h -- +- + with h -=K -/π - and - +=e +/μ +, using a sample of 471±3 million BB̄ events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e +e - collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We find no evidence for these decays and place 90%-confidence-level upper limits on their branching fractions B(B +→π -e +e +)<2.3×10 -8, B(B +→K -e +e +)<3.0×10 -8, B(B +→π -μ +μ +)<10. 7×10 -8, and B(B +→K -μ +μ +)<6.7×10 -8.File in questo prodotto:
