Description/AbstractWe have searched for the decays B{sup 0}{sub s}{r_arrow}e{sup {plus_minus}}{mu}{sup {minus_plus}} and B{sup 0}{sub d}{r_arrow}e{sup {plus_minus}}{mu}{sup {minus_plus}} using a 102 pb{sup {minus}1} data sample of p{ovr p} collisions at {radical} (s) =1.8 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We set upper limits on the branching fractions of B(B{sup 0}{sub s}{r_arrow}e{sup {plus_minus} }{mu}{sup {minus_plus}}){lt}6.1(8.2) {times}10{sup {minus}6} and B(B{sup 0}{sub d}{r_arrow}e{sup {plus_minus} }{mu}{sup {minus_plus}}){lt}3.5(4.5) {times}10{sup {minus}6} at 90(95){percent} confidence level. Using these limits, we set lower bounds on the corresponding Pati-Salam leptoquark masses and find that M{sub LQ}(B{sup 0}{sub s}) {gt}20.7(19.3) TeV /c{sup 2} and M{sub LQ}(B{sup 0}{sub d}) {gt}21.7(20.4) TeV /c{sup 2} at 90(95){percent} confidence level. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society }
