A measurement of the tau lepton lifetime

Using τ + τ − pairs in which one τ decays to leptons and the other decays to 3 charged particles we present a high statistics measurement of the τ lepton lifetime. The data used in this analysis were collected with the CLEO detector at CESR and consist of an integrated luminosity of 429 pb −1 taken...
