Abstract
We report on a study of charged and neutral K ∗ production in tau decay. We obtain a branching ratio value BR (τ − → K ∗- ν τ X 0 ) = (1.43±0.11±0.13)% where X 0 designates possible unobserved neutral particles (charge conjugate modes are implicit). We observe the first signals for inclusive K ∗0 and K̄ ∗0 production in τ − decay, and determine the inclusive branching ratios τ − →K ∗0 K − ν τ X 0 and τ − K ̄ ∗0 π − ν τ X 0 to be (0.32±0.08±0.12)% and (0.38±0.11±0.13)%, respectively. We have searched for the decay τ − → K 0 K − ν τ X 0 and set a limit of 8 × 10 −3 at 90% confidence level.
