Question of the proper incorporation of spin effects in tau lepton decays is often of importance. In present work, case of the Z/gamma to tau+ tau- production mechanism is studied in detail. As an example, the effects due to the spin…

From electron-positron collision data collected with the CLEO detector operating at CESR near \sqrt{s}=10.6 GeV, improved measurements of the branching fractions for tau decays into three explicitly identified hadrons and a neutrino are…

Semileptonic decays of polarized $\tau$ leptons are investigated. The most general angular distribution of three meson final states ($\tau\rightarrow \pi\pi\nu,\,K\pi\nu,\, \pi\pi\pi\nu,\\ \,K\pi\pi\nu,\, KK\pi\nu,\, KKK\nu,\,…

The mass of the $\tau$-lepton has been measured in the decay modes $\tau \to 3\pi \nu_\tau$ and $\tau \to 3\pi \pi^0\nu_\tau$ using a pseudomass technique. The preliminary result is $1776.71\pm 0.25 {(stat)} \pm 0.62 {(syst)}$ MeV. The…

Motivated by the recent strong experimental evidence of large \nu_mu-\nu_tau neutrino mixing, we explore current bounds on the analogous mixing in the charged lepton sector. We present a general formalism for dimension-6 fermionic effective…

Using the heavy quark effective theory, chiral structure of the $b\rightarrow c$ charged current can be determined by the semileptonic $\Lambda_b$ decay with satisfactory theoretical accuracy. We define an asymmetry which is sensitive to…

We search for lepton flavor and lepton number violating tau decays into a lepton (ell = electron or muon) and two charged mesons (h,h' = pi^\pm or K^\pm), tau- -> ell-h+h'- and tau- -> ell+h-h'-, using 671 fb^{-1} of data collected with the…

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 (gamma, W, Z) are set in a model independent way using the most general effective…

To properly discover a charged Higgs Boson ($H^\pm$) requires its spin and couplings to be determined. We investigate how to utilize $\ttbar$ spin correlations to analyze the $H^\pm$ couplings in the decay $t\to bH^+\to b\tau^+\nu_\tau$.…

We carry out a detailed study of the branching fractions and lepton pair invariant-mass spectrum of \tau^- ->\pi^- \nu_\tau l^+l^- decays (l=e,\mu). In addition to the model-independent (QED) contributions, we include the…

We study the longitudinal, transverse, and normal polarization components of the tau lepton in the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(\ast)} \tau^- \bar\nu_{\tau}$ and discuss their role in searching for new physics (NP) beyond the standard model…

The nu_mu -> nu_tau oscillation hypothesis will be tested through nu_tau production of tau in underground neutrino telescopes as well as long-baseline experiments. We provide the full QCD framework for the evaluation of tau neutrino deep…

In this paper, we present detailed studies on the feasibility at $pp$, $e^-p$ and $e^+e^-$ colliders for model-independent sensitivity estimates on the total cross-section and on the anomalous $\tau^+\tau^-\gamma$ interaction through the…

The TauSpinner algorithm is a tool that allows to modify the physics model of the Monte Carlo generated samples due to the changed assumptions of event production dynamics, but without the need of re-generating events. With the help of…

We present a search for the lepton flavor violating decay B+ --> K+ tau-/+ mu+/- using 383 million B Bbar events collected by the BABAR experiment. The branching fraction for this decay can be substantially enhanced in new physics models.…

We discuss the potential of $\tau$-charm and B factories for the search of new physics through the study of rare $\tau$ decays. We consider decays that involve the violation of lepton flavour conservation. Such decays bear a close…

We propose a novel method to reconstruct event by event the full kinematics of the cascade decay process, $h \to \tau^+\tau^- \to (\pi^+ \bar{\nu}) (\pi^- \nu)$, which allows us to measure the $\tau^+\tau^-$ spin correlation, a measure of…

In semi-leptonic $B$ decays with a tau lepton, features of the production process are imprinted on the tau helicity states. Since the tau momentum cannot be fully reconstructed experimentally, the available information on the tau properties…

Within our present knowledge, the tau is the heaviest lepton and the only one decaying into hadrons, a fact that makes it the source of a very rich phenomenology. It represents the third family of leptons in the Standard Model, a feature…

Hadronic $\tau$ decays are studied as probe of new physics. We determine the dependence of several inclusive and exclusive $\tau$ observables on the Wilson coefficients of the low-energy effective theory describing charged-current…
