Search for Lepton-Flavor-Violating Decays to a Lepton and an Invisible Boson at Belle II

…, V Bertacchi, M Bertemes, E Bertholet, M Bessner… - Physical review …, 2023 - APS
We search for lepton-flavor-violating τ - → e - α and τ - → μ - α decays, where α is an
invisible spin-0 boson. The search uses electron-positron collisions at 10.58 GeV center-of-mass …
