Spin correlations in the τ-lepton pair in polarized electron-positron annihilation

Abstract

Possible anomalous New Physics contributions to dipole and weak dipole moments of the τ lepton rise considerable interest in theoretical and experimental studies of the τ-pair production in electron-positron annihilation and in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. In the present paper we discuss and calculate the spin-correlation matrix in the e+ e- → τ+ τ-, and in general f f̅ → τ+ τ- processes, including New Physics contributions to the γττ and $Z ττ$ vertices and longitudinally polarized beams of initial fermions. The τ decays are included as well. This work is an upgrade of our previous studies of the spin correlations in the ττ system produced in the processes with unpolarized initial fermions (e- e+ and qq̅). A corresponding numerical code is developed. Brief information on how to use and configure the MC programs with a new subroutine is also given.
