Observation of tau -lepton decay to five charged particles

The production of tau-lepton pairs in e/sup +/e/sup -/ collisions at 29 GeV has been used to study the inclusive tau decay into five charged particles. Ten events are observed in the high-resolution spectrometer giving a branching ratio of B(tau..-->..5..pi../sup + -/+n..gamma..+..nu../sub tau/)...

description The production of tau-lepton pairs in e/sup +/e/sup -/ collisions at 29 GeV has been used to study the inclusive tau decay into five charged particles. Ten events are observed in the high-resolution spectrometer giving a branching ratio of B(tau..-->..5..pi../sup + -/+n..gamma..+..nu../sub tau/) = (1.3 +- 0 .4) x 10/sup -3/. Five of the events contain photons which are consistent with coming from a single ..pi../sup 0/. With this interpretation we measure B(tau..-->..5..pi.. +- +..nu../sub tau/), B(tau..-->..5..pi../sup + -/+..pi../sup 0/+..nu../sub tau/) = (6.7 +- 3.0) x 10/sup -4/. The branching-ratio upper limit for the decay mode tau..-->..K/sup 0/+3..pi../sup + -/n..gamma..+..nu../sub tau/ is found, at 90% confidence level, to be 2.7 x 10/sup -3/.
