Abstract
We report on a precision measurement of the ratio R^(Υ(3S))_(τμ) = B(Υ(3S) → τ⁺τ⁻)/B(Υ(3S) → μ⁺μ⁻) using data collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II e⁺e⁻ collider. The measurement is based on a 28 fb⁻¹ data sample collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.355 GeV corresponding to a sample of 122 million Υ(3S) mesons. The ratio is measured to be R^(Υ(3S))_(τμ) = 0.966±0.008_(stat)±0.014_(syst) and is in agreement with the standard model prediction of 0.9948 within 2 standard deviations. The uncertainty in R^(Υ(3S))_(τμ) is almost an order of magnitude smaller than the only previous measurement.
