### Search for single production of scalar leptoquarks in p(p)over-bar collisions decaying into muons and quarks with the D0 detector

Abstract:

We report on a search for second generation leptoquarks (LQ2) which decay into a muon plus quark in p over(p, ̄) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 1.96   TeV in the D0 detector using an integrated luminosity of about 300 pb-1. No evidence for a leptoquark signal is observed and an upper bound on the product of the cross section for single leptoquark production times branching fraction β into a quark and a muon was determined for second generation scalar leptoquarks as a funct...
