Search for the rare decays KL0→μe and KL0ee

Abstract
A search for the rare decays KL0→μe and KL0ee was performed at the KEK 12-GeV Proton Synchrotron. No event was observed in the fiducial region for the decay KL0→μe. There was one event in the fiducial region for the decay KL0ee, which was indistinguishable from the background. The upper limits on the branching ratios at 90% confidence level were B(KL0→μe)<9.4×1011 and B(KL0ee)<1.6×1010.
