Dreaming Of Tau Lepton Decays

The tau lepton is a particle of very complex phenomenology. Although point-like as its lighter counterparts - the electron and the muon - the tau has a quite respectable mass, 1.77 GeV, which makes all the difference from the other charged leptons. The tau was discovered in 1975 by Martin Perl at the SPEAR electron-positron ...
