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