Description
It is important to study possible baryon number violating processes from a variety of contexts. In this poster I will discuss processes that violate baryon number by two units, starting with two bound nucleons and ending with multiple pions. These will be discussed in the context of the Super-Kamiokande water Cherenkov detector, which has typically focused on single-nucleon decays. Searches for the modes pp->pi+pi+, pn->pi+pi0, and nn->pi0pi0 are discussed, and preliminary results are presented.
