Search for excited neutrinos from Z0 decays

We have searched for the excited electron neutrino produced from Z 0 decays in the channel e + e − →νν ∗ using the L3 detector at LEP. The decays ν ∗ →eW and ν ∗ →νγ have been investigated. We have determined an upper limit on the Zνν ∗ coupling as a function of m ν ∗ up to the Z 0 mass.
