Abstract

A search for flavor violating decays of the $Z$ boson to charged leptons is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV$ collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $138 {fb}^{- 1}$ . Each of the decays $Z \to e μ$ , $Z \to e τ$ , and $Z \to μ τ$ is considered. The data are consistent with the backgrounds expected from standard model processes. For the $Z \to e μ$ channel the observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is $1.9 (2.0) \times 10^{- 7}$ , which is the most stringent direct limit to date on this process; the corresponding limits for the $Z \to e τ$ and $Z \to μ τ$ channels are $13.8 (11.4) \times 10^{- 6}$ and $12.0 (5.3) \times 10^{- 6}$ , respectively. Additionally, the $e μ$ final state is used to search for lepton flavor violating decays of $Z^{'}$ resonances in the mass range from 110 to $500 GeV$ . No significant excess is observed above the predicted background levels.
