We present a search for the lepton flavor violating decay modes B+/- to h+/- tau l (h= K,pi; l= e,mu) using the BaBar data sample, which corresponds to 472 million BBbar pairs. The search uses events where one B meson is fully reconstructed in one of several hadronic final states. Using the momenta of the reconstructed B, h, and l candidates, we are able to fully determine the tau four-momentum. The resulting tau candidate mass is our main discriminant against combinatorial background. We see no evidence for B+/- to h+/- tau l decays and set a 90% confidence level upper limit on each branching fraction at the level of a few times 10^-5.

Features of Charged Lepton Flavor Violation in an $A_4$ Symmetric Neutrino Mass Model
A reanalysis of an A4 neutrino mass model concludes meson CLFV decays can be near current bounds while radiative CLFV vanishes, but the radiative amplitude is computed incorrectly.
