We present a compressive study on rare semileptonic $B_c \to D^{(*)}\tau \bar \nu_\tau$ decays involving $b \to u \tau \bar \nu_\tau$ quark level transitions in an effective field theory approach. We consider the presence of an additional…
The \tau -> (\omega, \phi)P^-\nu decays, where P^-=\pi^-, K^-, are considered within a phenomenological model with dominance of meson intermediate states. We assume SU(3) flavor symmetry to fix some of the unknown strong interaction…
Precise measurements of the lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of tau physics, highlighting the most recent developments, and discuss…
We investigate rare decays of tau leptons that occur via exchange of heavy on-shell neutrinos $N_j$ ($j=1,2$). These neutrinos can be either Dirac or Majorana, and are considered to be almost degenerate in mass. The decays can thus be…
New interactions with Lorentz scalar structure, arising from physics beyond the standard model of electroweak interactions, will induce effective pseudoscalar interactions after renormalization by weak interaction loop corrections. Such…
This thesis presents a study of the decays $\tau\rightarrow e\nu\overline{\nu}$ identified after a selection of $\tau^+\tau^-$ events produced in $e^+e^-$ collisions at LEP. These collisions, predominantly mediated by a $Z^0$ boson, offer a…
We analyze the decays $\tau^-\to K^-(\eta^{(\prime)},K^0) \nu_\tau$ within an effective field theory that includes the most general interactions between Standard Model fields up to dimension six, assuming left-handed neutrinos. In…
The \tau \to \omega,\phi \pi^- \nu_\tau decays of the \tau lepton are studied using the method of phenomenological SU(3) * SU(3) chiral Lagrangians. It is shown that the obtained value for the \tau \to \phi \pi \nu_\tau decay probability is…
The process of top-quark pair production followed by semileptonic decays at future high-energy e^+e^- linear colliders is investigated as a possible test of physics beyond the Standard Model. Assuming the most general non-standard forms for…
We report on analyses of tau lepton decays $\tau^- \to \eta K^- \nu_{\tau}$ and $\tau^- \to \eta \pi^- \nu_{\tau}$, with $\eta \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$, using 470 fb$^{-1}$ of data from the Babar experiment at PEP-II, collected at…
We investigate non-standard neutrino interactions (NSIs) in the triplet seesaw model featuring non-trivial correlations between NSI parameters and neutrino masses and mixing parameters. We show that sizable NSIs can be generated as a…
Tau leptons are powerful tools to probe physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). The Belle II experiment is installed at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider and aims at collecting the world's largest sample of tau pair…
Within the resonance chiral theory, we have studied the process of a tau lepton decaying into a vector resonance plus a pseudo-Goldstone meson and a tau neutrino. Two kinds of processes are discussed: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi…
In this work we study the short-range contributions that induce effective lepton number violating (LNV) interactions. We obtain a full set of constraints on the effective short-range couplings from a large variety of low-energy $|\Delta L|=…
I very briefly review the highlights of the fifth workshop on the physics of the tau lepton and its neutrino. There has been much progress in many sub-fields, which I touch upon in this review: the couplings of the tau to the $Z^0$ and…
In this work we study the Lepton Flavour Violating semileptonic $\tau$ decays: 1) $\tau \to \mu PP$ with $PP= \pi^+\pi^-, \pi^0\pi^0, K^+K^-, K^0 {\bar K}^0$; 2) $\tau \to \mu P$ with $P=\pi^0, \eta, \eta'$ and 3) $\tau \to \mu V$ with $V =…
Hyperon nonleptonic decays that change strangeness by two units, such as $\Xi\to N\pi$ and $\Omega^-\to nK^-,\Lambda\pi^-,\Sigma^{(*)}\pi$, are highly suppressed in the standard model. Only a few of them have been searched for to date,…
We present simulation studies in preparation for analyzing $\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-\nu_\tau$ in data from the Belle experiment at the KEK $\mathrm{e}^+\mathrm{e}^-$ collider. Analyzing this decay can shed light on the $\mathrm{a}_1(1260)$…
Some important aspects of hadronic tau decays are reviewed: the determination of alpha_s from the inclusive tau hadronic width, the measurement of |V_{us}| through the Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the tau, and the theoretical description of…
Recently, several indications of lepton non-universality observables have been perceived in semileptonic $B$ meson decay processes, both in the neutral-current ($b \to s ll $) and charged-current ($b \to c l \bar \nu_l$) transitions.…
