Description
The branching ratio of the τ- → e-νeντ decay and the radiative tau decay τ- → μ-νμντγ have been measured with the OPAL detector at LEP. A branching ratio of 0.1778±0.0010±0.0009 was obtained for the τ- → e-νeντ decay mode and (3.0±0.4±0.5) x 10-3 for the τ- → μ-νμντγ decay mode for photon energies above 20 MeV in the tau rest frame.
