First search for KL → π0γ

We report the first search for the KL → π0γ decay, which is forbidden by Lorentz invariance, using the data from 2016 to 2018 at the J-PARC KOTO experiment. With a single event sensitivity of (7.1 ± 0. 3stat ± 1. 6syst) × 10−8, no candidate event was observed in the signal region. The upper limit on...

Zusammenfassung:We report the first search for the KL → π0γ decay, which is forbidden by Lorentz invariance, using the data from 2016 to 2018 at the J-PARC KOTO experiment. With a single event sensitivity of (7.1 ± 0. 3stat ± 1. 6syst) × 10−8, no candidate event was observed in the signal region. The upper limit on the branching fraction was set to be 1.7 × 10−7 at the 90% confidence level.
