We report the results of a search for the rare, purely leptonic decayperformed with adata sample that containspairs, collected near the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energycollider. The signal events are selected based on the presence of a high momentum muon and the topology of the rest of the event showing properties of a generic-meson decay, as well as the missing energy and momentum being consistent with the hypothesis of a neutrino from the signal decay. We find a 2.4 standard deviation excess above background including systematic uncertainties, which corresponds to a branching fraction of B(B-→μ-ν¯μ)=(6.46±2.22±1.60)×10-7 or a frequentist 90% confidence level interval on thebranching fraction of.
