Tau physics at LEP

Although it has been a number of years since the end of LEP-I, there have recently been a number of new results involving high precision measurements of the properties of the tau lepton. In particular, we discuss the results that are unique to LEP such as the tau polarization. In addition, we discus...

Sumario:Although it has been a number of years since the end of LEP-I, there have recently been a number of new results involving high precision measurements of the properties of the tau lepton. In particular, we discuss the results that are unique to LEP such as the tau polarization. In addition, we discuss the recent measurements of the topological branching ratios and the leptonic decay modes where LEP has an advantage over the B-factories due to the reduced background from hadronic events.
