Tau decays into K* mesons

Using the ARGUS detector at the storage ring DORIS II we have measured τ decays into three charged mesons containing K* mesons. Exploiting the good particle identification capabilities of the detector we have determined the following branching ratios: Br(τ- → K*0π-ντ) = (0.25 ± 0.10 ± 0.05) %, Br(τ- → K*0K-ντ) = (0.20 ± 0.05 ± 0.04) %, and Br(τ- → K*-(X0)ντ) = (1.19 ± 0.15+0.13-0.18) %.
