The Tau Lepton*
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper reviews the present experimental knowledge of the properties of the tau lepton and the tau neutrino. The conventional theory of lepton properties and interactions is summarized; and that theory is compared with experiment. Future directions for research in tau and tau neutrino physics are described.

Lepton-Flavor Violating Decay of Tau Lepton in the Supersymmetric Seesaw Model
Now the bounds on the lepton-flavor violating (LFV) decay modes of tau lepton are being improved by the Belle experiment in the KEK B factory. In this paper the LFV decay of tau lepton is discussed in the supersymmetric seesaw model, using the current neutrino oscillation data.
متن کاملTau Electroweak Couplings
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.
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 کامل.Lepton Flavor Violation and Rare Tau Decays*
We point out that the good statistics promised by the proposed Tau-Charm Factory for tau lepton pair prduction close to threshold, in combination with the high purity of the tagged sample, opens a window onto new physics phenomena: lepton flavor violation involving the third family of basic fermions may have uniquely interesting implications not accessible in interactions under scrutiny elsewhere.
متن کاملModel independent bounds on the tau lepton electromagnetic and weak magnetic moments
Using LEP1, SLD and LEP2 data, for tau lepton production, and data from pp̄ colliders and LEP2, for W decays into tau leptons, we set model independent limits on non-standard electromagnetic and weak magnetic moments of the tau lepton. The most general effective Lagrangian giving rise to tau moments is used without further assumptions. Precise bounds (2σ) on the non-standard model contributions ...
