Description

Three results are presented: (1) The semi-leptonic branching ratio of the νsub(c) has been measured at SPEAR to be B(ν+sub(c) → e+X) = (4.5+-1.7)%. (2) Properties of tau-pair production have been measured at PEP at √S = 29 GeV: σsup(tau tau)/σsup(QED) = 0.97+-0.05+-0.06; the forward-backward asymmetry is Asub(tau tau) = (-3.5+-5.0)%; inclusive branching ratios are B(tau → 1 Prong) = (86+-4)%, B(tau → 3 Prongs) = (14+-4)%, B(tau → 5 Prongs) < 0.6% (95% C.L.). (3) A search has been performed for the pair production of charged, point like, spin 0 particles. The existence of such particles can be ruled at a 90% confidence level for 3 < M < 10 GeV/c2 and branching ratio into hadrons < 90%
