Search for LFV in Tau- to L- L+ L- Decays at BaBar

Conference · · Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl.189:166-172,2009
OSTI ID:1030520
We report the results of search for the neutrinoless lepton-flavor violating decay of the tau lepton into three charged leptons, performed using 376 fb{sup -1} of data collected at an e{sup +}e{sup -} center-of-mass energy around 10.58 GeV with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II. In all six decay modes considered, the number of events found in data are compatible with the background expectations. Upper limits on the branching fractions are set in the range (4-8) x 10{sup -8} at 90% confidence level.
