Abstract

This paper is designed to calculate the branching ratio of four-body decays of BB meson with lepton number changed by 2. With the new experimental data limit to lepton-number violation processes, we update the upper limits of mixing parameters between heavy Majorana neutrino and charged leptons. Afterwards, we calculate the branching ratio of B0(P)D(P1)1+(P2)2+(P3)M2(P4)B^0(P)\rightarrow D^{*-}(P_1)\ell^+_1(P_2)\ell^+_2(P_3)M_2^-(P_4) using the updated parameters. It is found that the most hopeful decay channel is B0(P)D(P1)e1+(P2)e2+(P3)ρ(P4)B^0(P)\rightarrow D^{*-}(P_1)e^+_1(P_2)e^+_2(P_3)\rho^-(P_4) or B0(P)D(P1)e(μ)1+(P2)μ(e)2+(P3)ρ(P4)B^0(P)\rightarrow D^{*-}(P_1)e(\mu)^+_1(P_2)\mu(e)^+_2(P_3)\rho^-(P_4), whose branching ratio can reach about 10410^{-4} with heavy Majorana neutrino mass range around 2 GeV2~\mathrm{GeV}.
