Search for lepton-flavor-violating tau-lepton decays to $$ellgamma$$ at Belle

Uno, Kenta*; Tanida, Kiyoshi   ; Belle Collaboration*; 181 of others*

Charged lepton flavor violation is forbidden in the Standard Model but possible in several new physics scenarios. In many of these models, the radiative decays $$tau^{pm}rightarrowell^{pm}gamma$$ ($$ell=e,mu$$) are predicted to have a sizeable probability, making them particularly interesting channels to search at various experiments. An updated search via $$tau^{pm}rightarrowell^{pm}gamma$$ using full data of the Belle experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 988 fb$$^{-1}$$, is reported for charged lepton flavor violation. No significant excess over background predictions from the Standard Model is observed, and the upper limits on the branching fractions, $$mathcal{B}(tau^{pm}rightarrow mu^{pm}gamma)$$ $$leq$$ $$4.2times10^{-8}$$ and $$mathcal{B}(tau^{pm}rightarrow e^{pm}gamma)$$ $$leq$$ $$5.6times10^{-8}$$, are set at 90% confidence level.
