Description
The branching ratios of the τ^- -> h^- ν_τ, τ^- -> h^- π^0 ν_τ, τ^- -> h^- >=2 π^0 ν_τdecays have been measured using the 1991-1995 data recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP. These branching ratios are measured simultaneously using three selection criteria and are found to be
BR(τ^- -> h^- ν_τ) = (11.98 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.16)%
BR(τ^- -> h^- π^0 ν_τ) = (25.89 +/- 0.17 +/- 0.29)%
BR(τ^- -> h^- >=2 π^0 ν_τ) = ( 9.91 +/- 0.31 +/- 0.27)%
where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.
