Abstract
We searched for proton decay via in of data collected between 1996 and 2018 from the Super-Kamiokande water Cherenkov experiment. The selection criteria were defined separately for and channels. No significant event excess has been observed. As a result of this analysis, which extends the previous search by an additional of exposure and uses an improved event reconstruction, we set a lower limit of on the proton lifetime.
