Abstract
Searches for lepton-flavor-violating decays of a $\ensuremath{\tau}$ lepton to a lighter mass lepton and a photon have been performed with the entire data set of $(963\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}7)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6}\text{ }\text{ }\ensuremath{\tau}$ decays collected by the BABAR detector near the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(4S)$, $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(3S)$ and $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)$ resonances. The searches yield no evidence of signals and we set upper limits on the branching fractions of…
