Journal Article Lees, J.; Poireau, V.; Tisserand, V.; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology

Charge asymmetry in the processes e⁺e^– → μ⁺μ^–γ and e⁺e^– → π⁺π^–γ is measured using 232 fb^–1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at e⁺e^– center-of-mass energies near 10.58 GeV. An observable is introduced and shown to be very robust against detector asymmetries while keeping a large sensitivity to the physical charge asymmetry that results from the interference between initial- and final-state radiation (FSR). The asymmetry is determined as a function of the invariant mass of the final-state tracks from production threshold to a few GeV/c². It is compared to the expectation from QED for e⁺e^– → μ⁺μ^–γ, andmore »« less

Searching for new physics at $μ \to e$ facilities with $μ^{+}$ and $π^{+}$ decays at rest

Journal Article Hill, Richard; Plestid, Ryan; Zupan, Jure - Physical Review. D.

We investigate the ability of μ → e facilities, Mu2e and COMET, to probe, or discover, new physics with their detector validation datasets. The validation of the detector response may be performed using a dedicated run with μ⁺, collecting data below the Michel edge, E_e ≲ 52 MeV; an alternative strategy using π⁺ → e⁺ν_e may also be considered. We focus primarily on a search for a monoenergetic e⁺ produced via two-body decays μ⁺ → e⁺X or π⁺ → e⁺X, with X a light new physics particle. Mu2e can potentially explore new parameter space beyond present astrophysical and laboratory constraintsmore »« less

Search for an Invisibly Decaying $Z^{'}$ Boson at Belle II in $e^{+} e^{-} \to μ^{+} μ^{-} (e^{\pm} μ^{\mp})$ Plus Missing Energy Final States

Journal Article Adachi, I.; Ahlburg, P.; Aihara, H.; ... - Physical Review Letters

Theories beyond the standard model often predict the existence of an additional neutral boson, the Z0. Using data collected by the Belle II experiment during 2018 at the SuperKEKB collider, we perform the first searches for the invisible decay of a Z0 in the process eþe- → μþμ-Z0 and of a lepton-flavor-violating Z0 in eþe- → eμ∓Z0. We do not find any excess of events and set 90% credibility level upper limits on the cross sections of these processes. We translate the former, in the framework of an Lμ - Lτ theory, into upper limits on the Z0 coupling constantmore »« less
