Three new observables for Z-factory to measure the weak dipole moment of $\tau$ lepton ($d_w^\tau$) are proposed. As those observables employed at LEP-I, the new observables depend on the real and imaginary parts of $d_w^\tau$ linearly,…
We study the expected sensitivity at Belle and Belle II for four-body $\tau^\mp \to X^\pm l^\mp l^\mp \nu_{\tau}$ decays where $l=e$ or $\mu$ and $X=\pi$, $K$, $\rho$ and $K^*$ mesons. These decay processes violate the total lepton number…
Measuring the tau-lepton ($\tau$) anomalous magnetic moment $a_\tau = (g_\tau -2)/2$ in photon fusion production ($\gamma\gamma\to\tau\tau$) tests foundational Standard Model principles. However, $\gamma\gamma\to\tau\tau$ eludes observation…
We establish model independent bounds on the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau-lepton using the two-photon processes $\gamma\gamma \to \tau^+\tau^-$ and $\gamma\gamma \to \tau^+\tau^-\gamma$. We use ${\cal L}=10, 50,…
