Description

We have searched for the lepton-flavor-violating decay D0→e/sup +- /μ/sup minus-or-plus/ in 204 pb/sup -1/ of e+e- annihilation data at E/sub c.m./ = 29 GeV from the Mark II detector. No candidates were found; we estimate an upper limit on the cross section times branching ratio of σ(e+e-→D0,D-bar0; inclusive)B(D0→e/sup +- /μ/sup minus-or-plus/)<0.35 pb at the 90% confidence level. Simple assumptions yield the rough limit B(D0→e/sup +- /μ/sup minus-or-plus/)<2.1 x 10/sup -3/. AE
