How To Search For An Electric Dipole Form Factor Of The Tau Lepton At A Tau Charm Factory

We investigate some CP-odd correlations which can be used to search for an electric dipole form factor d{sub?}(s) of the? in the reaction ee− →?+? − at c.m. energies √s relevant for a?-charm factory. These observables require measurement of the? polarizations. Using the channel e+e− →?+?{sub?}?−?{sub {tau}} one should be able to measure d{sub {tau}} at √s = 4 GeV with an accuracy?(d{sub {tau}}) {approx equal} 2.5 × 10−16e cm, assuming the production of 107 {tau} pairs. The same accuracy can be reached with 106 {tau} pairs at √s = 10 GeV, the typical c.m. energy of a B-factory. 8 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
