Abstract
We present a search for a non-Standard-Model invisible particle X 0 in the mass range 0.1–1.8 GeV/c 2 in B + → e + X 0 and B + → μ + X 0 decays. The results are obtained from a 711 fb−1 data sample which corresponds to 772 × 106 \(B\bar B\) pairs, collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e + e − collider. One B meson is fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode to determine the momentum of the lepton of the signal decay in the rest frame of the recoiling partner B meson. We find no evidence of a signal and set upper limits on the order of 10−6.
