Data are found to be consistent with the expectation from the Standard Model backgrounds. Limits on R-parity-violating couplings at 95 \% C.L. are calculated as a function of the scalar top mass (m\(_\tilde{t}\)). The upper limits on the production cross section for pp→eμX, through the t-channel exchange of a scalar top quark, ranges from 170 fb for m\(_\tilde{t}\)=95 GeV to 30 fb for m\(_\tilde{t}\)=1000 GeV.}, language = {en} }
