Abstract Using 10.1 × 109J/ψ events produced by the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII) at a center-of-mass energy $$ \sqrt{s} $$ s = 3.097 GeV and collected with the BESIII detector, we present a search for the rare semi-leptonic decay J/ψ → D−e+νe + c.c. No excess of signal above background is observed, and an upper limit on the branching fraction ℬ(J/ψ → D−e+νe + c. c.) < 7.1 × 10−8 is obtained at 90% confidence level. This is an improvement of more than two orders of magnitude over the previous best limit.

Abstract A search is presented for a Higgs boson that is produced via vector boson fusion and that decays to an undetected particle and an isolated photon. The search is performed by the CMS collaboration at the LHC, using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 130 fb−1, recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2016–2018. No significant excess of events above the expectation from the standard model background is found. The results are interpreted in the context of a theoretical model in which the undetected particle is a massless dark photon. An upper limit is set on the product of the cross section for production via vector boson fusion and the branching fraction for such a Higgs boson decay, as a function of the Higgs boson mass. For a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, assuming the standard model production rates, the observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is 3.5 (2.8)%. This is the first search for such decays in the vector boson fusion channel. Combination with a previous search for Higgs bosons produced in association with a Z boson results in an observed (expected) upper limit on the branching fraction of 2.9 (2.1)% at 95% confidence level.

We present a search for the decay B+ → τ+ντ in [Formula: see text] decays recorded with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II B-Factory. A sample of events with one reconstructed exclusive semi-leptonic B decay [Formula: see text] is selected, and in the recoil a search for B+ → τ+ ντ signal is performed. The τ is identified in the following channels: [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. We find no evidence of signal, and we set a preliminary upper limit on the branching fraction of [Formula: see text] at the 90% confidence level (CL). This result is then combined with a statistically independent BABAR search for B+ → τ+ντ to give a combined preliminary limit of [Formula: see text] at 90% CL.

We present a search for the flavor-changing neutral current decay Bs→ μ+μ-ϕ in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], using 91.4 pb-1 of data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). We find two candicate events for this decay, which is consistent with the background estimate, and set a preliminary upper limit on the branching fraction of ℬ(Bs → μ+ μ-ϕ)<4.2 · 10-5 at a 90% confidence level.

We report observations of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays B→ D(*)K and an upper limit for the decay branching fraction for [Formula: see text] using a 5.3fb-1 data sample accumulated at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- asymmetric collider.

Search for charginos and neutralinos are presented, based on the data samples recorded in 1999 and 2000 by the DELPHI detector at centre-of-mass energies from 192 to 209 GeV. No evidence for a signal was found. The lower chargino mass limits are 5-6 GeV /c2 higher than those obtained at a centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV. The (μ, M 2) MSSM domain excluded by combining the chargino searches with neutralino searches at the Z resonance implies a limit on the mass of the lightest neutralino which, for a heavy sneutrino, is constrained to be above 37.6 GeV /c2 for tan β≥1. Upper limit at 95% CL on the neutralino production cross-section times branching fraction are derived.
