PY - 2015 DA - 2015// TI - Search for a Heavy Neutral Particle Decaying to e mu, e tau, or μtau in pp Collisions at root s=8 TeV with the ATLAS Detector T2 - Phys. Rev. Lett. JO - Physical Review Letters SP - 031801 EP - 18pp VL - 115 IS - 3 PB - Amer Physical Soc AB - This Letter presents a search for a heavy neutral particle decaying into an opposite-sign different-flavor dilepton pair, e(+/-) mu(-/+), e(+/-) tau(-/+), or mu(+/-) tau(-/+) using 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collision data at root s = 8 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The numbers of observed candidate events are compatible with the standard model expectations. Limits are set on the cross section of new phenomena in two scenarios: the production of (nu) over tilde (tau) in R-parity-violating supersymmetric models and the production of a lepton-flavor-violating Z' vector boson.
