We present the results of a search for the charged-lepton-flavor violating decays B0 -> K*0 tau +/-& ell;-/+, where & ell;-/+ is either an electron or a muon. The results are based on 365 fb-1 and 711 fb-1 datasets collected with the Belle II and Belle detectors, respectively. We use an exclusive hadronic B-tagging technique, and search for a signal decay in the system recoiling against a fully reconstructed B meson. We find no evidence for B0 -> K*0 tau +/-& ell;-/+ decays and set upper limits on the branching fractions in the range of (2.9-6.4)x10-5 at 90% confidence level.

Abstract

We present the results of a search for the charged-lepton-flavor violating decays B0 -> K*0 tau +/-& ell;-/+, where & ell;-/+ is either an electron or a muon. The results are based on 365 fb-1 and 711 fb-1 datasets collected with the Belle II and Belle detectors, respectively. We use an exclusive hadronic B-tagging technique, and search for a signal decay in the system recoiling against a fully reconstructed B meson. We find no evidence for B0 -> K*0 tau +/-& ell;-/+ decays and set upper limits on the branching fractions in the range of (2.9-6.4)x10-5 at 90% confidence level.
