The experiment E865 at BNL places an upper limit on the branching ratio for the decay K+ -> pi+ mu+ e- of 3.9x10^-11 (90% C.L.). Along with with other results this yields a combined upper limit on this branching ratio of 2.8x10^-11. A new…

With the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric $B$ Factory at SLAC, we present the first search for the decays $B^0\to\ell^+\ell^-\gamma$ ($l=e, \mu$). Using a data set of 292 $fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance, we find…

Results are presented from a search for the rare decays B(s) to mu+ mu- and B0 to mu+ mu- in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 and 8 TeV, with data samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of 5 and 20 inverse femtobarns, respectively,…

Building on the rare pion and muon decay results of the PIBETA experiment, the PEN collaboration has undertaken a precise measurement of B_{\pi e2} = R^\pi_{e/\mu}, the \pi^+ -> e^+\nu(\gamma) decay branching ratio, at the Paul Scherrer…

From analysis of data produced by the BABAR experiment, the first upper bounds (90% C.L.) were obtained on the branching ratios $Br(\tau \to e \gamma\gamma)<2.5 \times 10^{-4}$ and $Br(\tau \to \mu \gamma\gamma)<5.8 \times 10^{-4}$. In…
