Charged-lepton-flavor-violation is predicted in several new physics scenarios. We update the analysis of

We study bottomonium production in association with an Formula omitted meson in Formula omitted annihilations near the Formula omitted, at a centre-of-mass energy of Formula omitted GeV. The results ...are based on the 121.4 fb Formula omitted data sample collected by the Belle experiment at the asymmetric-energy KEKB collider. Only the Formula omitted meson is reconstructed and the missing-mass spectrum of Formula omitted candidates is investigated. We observe the Formula omitted process and find evidence for the Formula omitted process, while no significant signals of Formula omitted, Formula omitted, nor Formula omitted are found. Cross sections for the studied processes are reported.
