We present the first measurements of absolute branching fractions of Ξc0 decays into Ξ−π+, ΛK−π+, and pK−K−π+ final states. The measurements are made using a dataset comprising (772±11)×106 BB¯ pairs ...collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e− collider. We first measure the absolute branching fraction for B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0 using a missing-mass technique; the result is B(B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0)=(9.51±2.10±0.88)×10−4. We subsequently measure the product branching fractions B(B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0)B(Ξc0→Ξ−π+), B(B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0)B(Ξc0→ΛK−π+), and B(B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0)B(Ξc0→pK−K−π+) with improved precision. Dividing these product branching fractions by the result for B−→Λ¯c−Ξc0 yields the following branching fractions: B(Ξc0→Ξ−π+)=(1.80±0.50±0.14)%, B(Ξc0→ΛK−π+)=(1.17±0.37±0.09)%, and B(Ξc0→pK−K−π+)=(0.58±0.23±0.05)%. For the above branching fractions, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Our result for B(Ξc0→Ξ−π+) can be combined with Ξc0 branching fractions measured relative to Ξc0→Ξ−π+ to yield other absolute Ξc0 branching fractions.
We present a search for lepton-flavor-violating τ decays into three leptons (electrons or muons) using 782 fb−1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider. ...No evidence for these decays is observed and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions between 1.5×10−8 and 2.7×10−8.
We report the first search for a non-standard-model resonance decaying into $\tau$ pairs in $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \mu^{+}\mu^{-} \tau^+\tau^-$ events in the 3.6-10 GeV/$c^{2}$ mass range. We use a ...62.8 fb$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The analysis probes three different models predicting a spin-1 particle coupling only to the heavier lepton families, a Higgs-like spin-0 particle that couples preferentially to charged leptons (leptophilic scalar), and an axion-like particle, respectively. We observe no evidence for a signal and set exclusion limits at 90% confidence level on the product of cross section and branching fraction into $\tau$ pairs, ranging from 0.7 fb to 24 fb, and on the couplings of these processes. We obtain world-leading constraints on the couplings for the leptophilic scalar model for masses above 6.5 GeV/$c^2$ and for the axion-like particle model over the entire mass range.
The $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ extension of the standard model predicts the existence of a lepton-flavor-universality-violating $Z^{\prime}$ boson that couples only to the heavier lepton families. We search ...for such a $Z^\prime$ through its invisible decay in the process $e^+ e^- \to \mu^+ \mu^- Z^{\prime}$. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58GeV collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019-2020, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.7fb$^{-1}$. We find no excess over the expected standard-model background. We set 90$\%$-confidence-level upper limits on the cross section for this process as well as on the coupling of the model, which ranges from $3 \times 10^{-3}$ at low $Z^{\prime}$ masses to 1 at $Z^{\prime}$ masses of 8$GeV/c^{2}$.
We study the processes $e^+e^-\to\omega\chi_{bJ}(1P)$ ($J$ = 0, 1, or 2) using samples at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.701, 10.745, and 10.805 GeV, corresponding to 1.6, 9.8, and 4.7 ...fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, respectively. These data were collected with the Belle II detector during special operations of the SuperKEKB collider above the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. We report the first observation of $\omega\chi_{bJ}(1P)$ signals at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.745 GeV. By combining Belle II data with Belle results at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.867 GeV, we find energy dependencies of the Born cross sections for $e^+e^-\to \omega\chi_{b1,b2}(1P)$ to be consistent with the shape of the $\Upsilon(10753)$ state. These data indicate that the internal structures of the $\Upsilon(10753)$ and $\Upsilon(10860)$ states may differ. Including data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.653 GeV, we also search for the bottomonium equivalent of the $X(3872)$ state decaying into $\omega\Upsilon(1S)$. No significant signal is observed for masses between 10.45 and 10.65 GeV/$c^2$.
We report the first measurement of the Michel parameter ξ′ in the τ−→μ−¯νμντ decay with a new method proposed just recently. The measurement is based on the reconstruction of the τ−→μ−¯νμντ events ...with subsequent muon decay in flight in the Belle central drift chamber. The analyzed data sample of 988 fb−1 collected by the Belle detector corresponds to approximately 912×106 τ+τ− pairs. We measure ξ′=0.22±0.94(stat)±0.42(syst), which is in agreement with the standard model prediction of ξ′=1. Statistical uncertainty dominates in this study, being a limiting factor, while systematic uncertainty is well under control. Our analysis proved the practicability of this promising method and its prospects for further precise measurement in future experiments.
We present a search for the lepton-flavour-violating decays $B^+ \to K^+ \tau^\pm \ell^\mp$, with $\ell = (e, \mu)$, using the full data sample of $772 \times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ pairs recorded by ...the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We use events in which one $B$ meson is fully reconstructed in a hadronic decay mode. We find no evidence for $B^\pm \to K^\pm \tau \ell$ decays and set upper limits on their branching fractions at the 90% confidence level in the $(1$-$3) \times 10^{-5}$ range. The obtained limits are the world's best results.
