Measurement of the polarization of {tau} leptons produced in z decays at ALEPH

Abstract

The polarization of {tau} leptons produced in the reactions e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} {tau}{sup +}{tau}{sup -} at the Z resonance has been measured using the {tau} decay modes e{nu}{sub e}{nu}{sub {tau}}, {mu}{nu}{sub {mu}}{nu}{sub {tau}}, {pi}{nu}{sub {tau}}, {rho}{nu}{sub {tau}} and {alpha}{sub 1}{nu}{sub {tau}}. The mean value obtained is P{sub {tau}} = -0.152 {+-} 0.045. The result corresponds to a value of the electroweak mixing angle of sin{sup 2}{theta}{sub W}(M{sup 2}{sub Z}) = 0.2302 {+-} 0.0058. (author). 7 refs, 8 figs.
