description

A search for lepton flavour number violating $Z^0$ decays in the channels \begin{center} $Z^0\rightarrow \mu\tau$,\\ $Z^0\rightarrow e\tau$, \\ $Z^0\rightarrow e\mu$, \\ \end{center} using the DELPHI detector with data collected during the 1991--94 LEP runs, is described. No signal was found. Upper limits at 95\% confidence level for the respective branching fractions of $1.2\times 10^{-5}$, $2.2\times 10^{-5}$, and $0.25\times 10^{-5}$, were obtained.
