Abstract: (Elsevier)
The τ decay library TAUOLA has been enriched. The present version of the program includes more than twenty decay channels, including: (a) leptonic modes τ - → nν e - → nνμ - (γ), (b) one-meson modes: νπ - , ν K - , (c) t wo-meson modes: νπ - π 0 (ϱ - ), ν K 0 π - ( K ∗- ), ν K - π 0 ( K ∗- ), (d) three-meson modes: νπ - 2ν 0 ( a - 1 ), ν2π - π + ( a - 1 ), ν K + K - π - , ν K̄ 0 K 0 π - , ν K - K̄ 0 π 0 , ν K - π 0 π 0 , ν K - π - π + , ν K 0 π 0 π - , νηπ - π 0 , (e) four-pion modes: νπ - 3π 0 , ν2π - π + π 0 (including the ωπ - contribution), (f) multi-pion modes: ν n π±, 0 with n > 4, and finally the decay τ - → νπ - π 0 γ from the ω → πγ.
