The searches are based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy root s = 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb(-1). No significant excess is observed above the expected background from Standard Model processes. The observed (median expected) 95{\%} confidence-level upper limits on the lepton-flavour-violating branching ratios are 0.47{\%}(0.34(-0.10)(+0.13){\%}) and 0.28{\%}(0.37(-0.10)(+0.14){\%}) for H -> e tau and H -> $\mu$tau, respectively.", optnote="WOS:000503832500048", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4241), last updated on Mon, 20 Jan 2020 07:43:36 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2019.135069", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.06131", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2019.135069", language="English" }
