Status of Tau Physics
نویسنده
چکیده
We review, very briefly, many of the important results arising in the study of tau lepton production and decay, with emphasis on recent results. We discuss the studies of topological and exclusive branching fractions, inclusive semi-leptonic tau decay spectral functions, extraction of QCD parameters including αS and the strange quark mass, exclusive semileptonic decays and low energy meson dynamics, and rare and forbidden (neutrinoless) decays. Special attention is paid to recent searches for CP non-conservation in tau pair production and tau decay.

Charmonium Physics in a Tau Charm Factory
The present status of the charmonium system is reviewed. Emphasis is placed on the following issues: the hadronic decay puzzle; search for the -vector glueball; confirmation of the ~42s) and hcl states; the xc physics. The possibilities at a future Tau Charm Factory are discussed.
متن کاملSome topological operators via grills
In this paper, we define and study two operators $Phi^s$ and $Psi^s$ with grill. Characterization and basic properties of these operators are obtained. Also, we generalize a grill topological spaces via topology $tau^s$ induced from operators $Phi^s$ and $Psi^s$.
متن کاملTracker and Calorimeter Performance for the Identification of Hadronic Tau Lepton Decays in ATLAS
Tau leptons play an important role in the physics program in ATLAS. They can be used not only in searches for new phenomena like the Higgs boson or Supersymmetry, or for electroweak measurements but also in detector related studies like the determination of the missing transverse energy scale. Identifying hadronically decaying tau leptons requires good understanding of the detector performance,...
متن کاملHigh Energy Astrophysical Tau Neutrinos: The Expectations
A search for high energy astrophysical tau neutrinos will not only yield quite useful information about some of the highest energy phenomenons occurring in the present universe related to the origin of observed high energy gamma rays and ultra high energy cosmic rays but also can possibly probe physics beyond standard model of particle physics. The representative extra terrestrial sources of hi...
متن کاملThe Tau Lepton and the Search for New Elementary Particle
This Fifth International WEIN Symposium is devoted to physics beyond the standard model. This talk is about tau lepton physics, but I begin with the question: do we know how to nd new physics in the world of elementary par-ticles? This question is interwoven with the various tau physics topics. These topics are: searching for unexpected tau decay modes; searching for additional tau decay mechan...
