Abstract

New preliminary BaBar results for rare leptonic decays BKννˉB^- \to K^-\nu \bar{\nu} and B0+B^0\to \ell^+\ell^- are reported. Using data collected at the \FourS\FourS with the BaBar detector, no evidence for a signal was found yielding the corresponding upper limits at the 90% confidence level: B(BKννˉ)<9.4×105{\cal B}(B^-\to K^-\nu \bar{\nu})< 9.4 \times 10^{-5} for 50.7\invfb50.7 \invfb , B(\bee)<\eeul{\cal B}(\bee)< \eeul, B(\bmm)<\mmul{\cal B}(\bmm) < \mmul and B(\bem)<\emul{\cal B}(\bem) < \emul using 54.4\invfb54.4 \invfb .
