Tau Electroweak Couplings
نویسنده
چکیده
We review world-average measurements of the tau lepton electroweak couplings, in both decay (including Michel parameters) and in production (Z → ττ and W → τ−ντ ). We review the searches for anomalous weak and EM dipole couplings. Finally, we present the status of several other tau lepton studies: searches for lepton flavor violating decays, neutrino oscillations, and tau neutrino mass limits.

Yukawa Coupling Evolution in Susy Guts
The scaling behavior and fixed points in the evolution of fermion Yukawa couplings and mixing angles are discussed. The relevance of fixed points in determining the top quark mass is described. The unification of gauge couplings is a well-known feature of unified theories. To understand the masses of the observed fermions requires ideas beyond the standard model. With certain assumptions about ...
متن کاملBounds on the Tau Magnetic Moments: Standard Model and Beyond
We obtain new bounds for the magnetic dipole moments of the tau lepton. These limits on the magnetic couplings of the tau to the electroweak gauge bosons (γ,W,Z) are set in a model independent way using the most general effective Lagrangian with the SU(2)L ⊗ U(1)Y symmetry. Comparison with data from the most precise experiments at high energies shows that the present limits are more stringent t...
متن کاملMass hierarchy of leptons and hadrons within the framework of electrodynamics
Structure of leptons and hadrons within the framework of electrodynamics is considered. Muon and tau-lepton have the structure of 3 electrons. The mass of muon is defined by the section of two-photon annihilation. The mass of tau-lepton is defined by the section of three-photon annihilation. Hadrons are characterized by the structure of 5 electrons. The masses of hadrons are defined via the mas...
متن کاملUnification of Couplings and the Dynamical Breakdown of the Electroweak Symmetry
I discuss the properties of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model, in the case in which there is a dynamical breakdown of the electroweak symmetry induced by the formation of condensates of the third generation of quarks and their supersymmetric partners. The top quark and Higgs mass predictions derived within this scheme are essentially equivalent to those ones obtained fr...
متن کاملCP Violation in radiative Z Decays
We propose to test the CP symmetry in the reactions Z → μμγ and Z → ττγ. The experimental analysis of angular correlations allows to determine a set of effective couplings: the electric and weak dipole moments of the muon and the tau lepton, and in particular chirality conserving 4-particle couplings, all of which can be induced by CP–violation in renormalizable theories of electroweak interact...
