We present here results from three different searches, for a long-lived (pseudo)scalar particle; for a di-tau resonance in four-muon final states events and the update on the search for a Z′ boson decaying invisibly in events with two muons plus missing energy, performed on samples from the data collected by the Belle II detector during 2019-2021 data taking. We report the search for τ → ℓα decays, with α a new invisible boson, and the first successful untagged reconstruction of tau pairs events searching for the neutrinoless decays τ → ℓφ. Finally, we present the world’s most precise measurement of the τ lepton mass. 000003548 6531_ $$aMoriond QCD23 000003548 8560_ $$flaura.zani@roma3.infn.it 000003548 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/3548/files/BELLE2-CONF-PROC-2023-010.pdf 000003548 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/3548/files/%20BELLE2-CONF-PROC-2023-010%20%28submitted%29.pdf
