For a resonance decaying to $\tau^+\tau^-$, it is difficult to reconstruct its mass accurately because of the presence of neutrinos in the decay products of the $\tau$ leptons. If the resonance is heavy enough, we show that its mass can be…

Neutrino oscillations as suggested by the recent Super-Kamiokande result imply that lepton numbers could be violated, and Z$\to \mu^{\mp} +\tau^{\pm}$ is a typical manifestation. We point out that for this mode, the GIM cancelation is much…

Model independent tests for symmetry violations in tau decays are important for determining whether the tau lepton is elementary or, instead, macroscopic. Such tests are also significant steps towards resolving the outstanding "e - mu -…
