We have collected a 43 event sample of the decay $K_L\to e^+e^-\mu^+\mu^-$ with negligible backgrounds and measured its branching ratio to be $(2.62 \pm 0.40 \pm 0.17)\times 10^{-9} $. We see no evidence for CP violation in this decay. In…

Transitions of charged leptons from one generation to another are basically prohibited in the Standard Model because of the mysteriously tiny neutrino masses, although such flavor-violating transitions have been long observed for quarks and…
