Measurement of the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau lepton

We analyse e+e-→ ττγ events using 100pb-1 of data collected by the L3 experiment during the 1991-1995 LEP runs at the Z pole. From the energy of the photons and their isolation from the tau decay products, we determine the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau to be, respectively...

description We analyse e+e-→ ττγ events using 100pb-1 of data collected by the L3 experiment during the 1991-1995 LEP runs at the Z pole. From the energy of the photons and their isolation from the tau decay products, we determine the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau to be, respectively: aτ = 0.004 ± 0.027 ± 0.023; dτ = (0.0 ± 1.5 + 1.3) × 10-16e · cm. This is a direct measurement of these τ form factors at q2 = 0. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
