Searches for lepton-flavor-violating decays of a [tau] lepton to a lighter mass lepton and a photon have been performed with the entire dataset of (963 ± 7) x 106 [tau] decays collected by the BABAR detector near the [Upsilon](4S), [Upsilon](3S) and [Upsilon](2S) resonances. The searches yield no evidence of signals and they set upper limits on the branching fractions of [Beta]([tau]{sup {+-}} 2!e{sup {+-}}[gamma])

A search for the lepton flavour violating decay {tau}{sup {+-}} {yields} {mu}{sup {+-}}{gamma} has been performed using 221.4 fb{sup -1} of data collected at an e{sup +}e{sup -} centre-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring. The search has an efficiency of 7.45 {+-} 0.65% for an expected background level of 6.2 {+-} 0.5 events. In the final sample 4 candidate events are selected. As there is no evidence for a signal in this data, for this preliminary result we set an upper limit of {Beta}({tau}{sup {+-}} {yields} {mu}{sup {+-}}{gamma})
The authors present a recent BABAR search for lepton flavor violation in tau decays. The search for {tau} {yields} {ell}{ell}{ell} ({ell} = e, {mu}) decays is based on a data sample of 91.6 fb{sup -1}. No signal is found in any of six channels and 90% CL upper limits are set in the range of (1-3) x 10{sup -7}. The search for {tau} {yields} {mu}{gamma} decay is done with a 63 fb{sup -1} data sample. The number of observed events is consistent with expected background level and a preliminary upper limit is set at 2 x 10{sup -6} at 90% CL.
The Standard Model (SM) is one of the most tested and verified physical theories of all time, present experimental observations are consistent with SM expectations. On the other hand SM can not explain many physical observations: the cosmological observations possibly infer the presence of dark matter which is clearly beyond the SM expectations; the SM Higgs model, while explaining the generation of fermion masses, can not explain the hierarchy problem and a non natural fine tuning of SM is needed to cancel out quadratic divergences in the Higgs boson mass. New physics (NP) beyond SM should hence be investigated: rising the energy above NP processes thresholds, and detecting new particles or new effects not predicted by the standard model directly, is one of the possible approaches; another approach is to make precision measurements of well known processes or looking for rare processes which involve higher order contribution from NP processes, this approach need higher luminosities with respect to the previous approach but lower beam energies. Search for Lepton Flavor Violation (LFV) in charged lepton decays is promising: neutrino physics provides indeed a clear and unambiguous evidence of LFV in the neutral lepton sector via mixing processes, which have been observed for the first time by the Homestake collaboration. We expect LFV in the charged sector as well, both in [mu] and [tau] sector, but current experimental searches for LFV processes did not find any evidence for those processes, and more results are expected to come from new experiments in the coming years.
Charged lepton-flavor violating processes are extremely rare in the Standard Model, but they are predicted to occur in several beyond-the-Standard Model theories, including Supersymmetry or models with leptoquarks or compositeness. We present a search for such processes in a sample of 117 x 106 [Upsilon](3S) decays recorded with the BABAR detector. We place upper limits on the branching fractions BF([Upsilon](3S) 2!e{sup {+-}}[tau]{sup {-+}})
A search is done on the entire BaBar data set for the neutrino-less tau decay tau->e gamma. No evidence for the decay is found and a 90% confidence level upper limit is determined to be 3.3 * 10^( -8) including systematic uncertainty. This measurement is a factor of three improvement from the previous best result from BaBar.
