Abstract
Kaon production in one prong tau decays has been studied using data collected with the DELPHI detector at the LEP collider. Charged kaons were identified over a large momentum range by the DELPHI barrel Ring Imaging Cherenkov detector. The following branching ratios have been determined: BR(τ→Kντ)=(0.85±0.18)%, BR(τ→Kντ≥0 neutrals)=(1.54±0.24)%, BR(τ→Kντ≥1 neutrals)=(0.69±0.25)%. The result for the exclusive branching ratio is consistent with the Standard Model prediction based on τ-μ-e universality. In addition, tau decay into K∗− was studied in the channel K∗−→K−π0. The result View the MathML source was obtained.
