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.…
The evaluation, systematic analysis and numerical study of the semileptonic $\tau$-lepton decays with two mesons in the final state has been made in the frame of the standard model extended by right handed neutrinos. In the analysis,…
A new set of hadronic form factors, which has been implemented in TAUOLA, is described.
Hadronic decays of the $\tau$ lepton provide a clean source to study hadron dynamics in an energy regime dominated by resonances, with the interesting information captured in the spectral functions. Recent results on exclusive channels are…
The neutrino interaction length scales with energy, and becomes comparable to Earth's diameter above 10's of TeV energies. Over terrestrial distances, the tau's short lifetime leads to an energetic regenerated tau neutrino flux, tau…
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…
The B Factories have generated a large amount of new results on the tau lepton. The present status of some selected topics on tau physics is presented: charged-current universality tests, bounds on lepton-flavour violation, the…
This is a review of some of the highlights of the 6th workshop on the physics of the tau lepton and its neutrino. This includes the test of lepton universality, measurement of Lorentz Structure, study of hadronic decays, direct evidence of…
This article summarizes recent developments in $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu$ decays. We explain how to extract the tau lepton's production properties from the kinematics of its decay products. The focus is on hadronic tau decays, which are most…
The recent measurements of the Michel parameters in tau decays enable, for the first time, a thorough analysis of the leptonic sector. In general, in models beyond the Standard Model, these parameters will be altered through changes in the…
This paper gives an overview of some of the more interesting results obtained at LEP in tau physics: precision measurements in neutral and charged currents universality and structure, tau mass, topological and exclusive Branching Ratios.
The meson decays $B\to D\tau\nu$ and $B\to D^* \tau \nu$ are sensitive probes of the $b\to c\tau\nu$ transition. In this work we present a complete framework to obtain the maximum information on the physics of $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$ with…
The momenta of $\tau$ decay products in the reaction $e^+e^-\to\tau^+\tau^-$ do not constrain the $\tau$ direction unambiguously. It is shown how the measurement of tracks of hadrons from semileptonic $\tau$ decays, in particular their…
The Lorentz structure of the tau lepton's charged-current can almost be completely determined by use of stage-two spin-correlation functions for the $\{\rho ^{-},\rho ^{+}\}$and $\{a_1^{-},a_1^{+}\}$ decay modes. It is possible to test for…
Selected results on hadronic decays of the tau lepton from the TAU98 Workshop are reviewed. A comprehensive picture emerges for strange particle branching fractions, and exploration of resonant substructure of both strange and non-strange…
Rare decays provide a complementary window to direct collider searches as probes of physics beyond the Standard Model. We present an overview of the New Physics sensitivity provided by existing and future measurements of rare leptonic and…
We study the semileptonic decays of the $B_c$ meson into final charmonium states within the standard model and beyond. The relevant hadronic transition form factors are calculated in the framework of the covariant confined quark model…
Recent theoretical results in tau lepton physics and their implications for the experimental analysis are presented. The paper is split into the following chapters: 1. Introduction, 2. Weak Couplings, 3. Inclusive Decays, Perturbative QCD…
We review many of the contributions of the CLEO experiment to tau physics. Topics discussed are: branching fractions for major decay modes and tests of lepton universality; rare decays; forbidden decays; Michel parameters and spin physics;…
We review a novel model-independent approach to the analysis of new-physics effects in the $s\to u\ell^-\bar\nu$ transitions. We apply it to (semi)leptonic kaon decays and study their complementarity with pion and hyperon $\beta$ decays or…
