Abstract

A blind analysis of data from Fermilab experiment E791 was used to obtain upper limits on the dileptron branching fractions for 27 flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-number violating decays, and lepton-family violating decays of D⁰ mesons. No evidence for any of these three- and four-body decays was found.
