LIMIT ON ${{\boldsymbol \mu}^{-}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\boldsymbol e}^{+}}$ CONVERSION
Forbidden by total lepton number conservation.

ABELA 1980 is upper limit for ${{\mathit \mu}^{-}}{{\mathit e}^{+}}$ conversion leading to particle-stable states of ${}^{127}\mathrm {Sb}$. Limit for total conversion rate is higher by a factor less than 4 (G. Backenstoss, private communication).
