Abstract

The inclusive production of K_S^O mesons τ lepton decay has been studied using the high resolution spectrometer at the PEP e⁺e^- storage ring operated at √s=29 GeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 300pb^-1. The measured branching fraction is B(τ^-→K_S^OX^-ν_τ) = (0.64±0.15)%. The measurement is consistent with all K_S^O coming from the Cabibbo-suppressed decay τ^-→K^*-(890)ν_τ with a branching ratio of (1.9±0.3±0.4)%.
