BELLE_2008_I786560

Measurement of Semi-Leptonic Tau Decays into $\pi^\pm\pi^0$
Experiment: Belle (KEKB)
Inspire ID: 786560
Status: VALIDATED
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:Beams: e+ e-
Beam energies: (3.5, 8.0) GeV
Run details:
  • Tau production, can be any process but original data was in $e^+ e^-$ at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance, with CoM boosts of 8.0 GeV ($e^-$) and 3.5 GeV ($e^+$)

High-statistics measurement of the branching fraction for $\tau\to\pi^-\pi^0\nu_\tau$ and the invariant mass spectrum of the produced $\pi^-\pi^0$ system using 72.2fb$^{-1}$of data recorded with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider.
