-the tau (τ) is an ‘elementary particle’ similar to the “electron”, with ‘negative electric charge’ and a ‘spin’ of ‘1/2′–
.
(together with the “electron”, the “muon”, and the 3 “neutrinos”, it is a “lepton”)
(like all ‘elementary particles’ with ‘half-integral spin’, the ‘tau’ has a corresponding ‘antiparticle’ of ‘opposite charge’ but ‘equal mass’ and ‘spin’, which in the tau’s case is the antitau (also called the positive tau))
(“tau” particles are denoted by τ− and the ‘antitau’ by τ+)
(‘tau leptons’ have a ‘lifetime’ of 2.9×10−13 s and a ‘mass’ of 1776.82 MeV/c2 (compared to 105.7 MeV/c2 for ‘muons’ and 0.511 MeV/c2 for ‘electrons’))
(since their ‘interactions’ are very similar to those of the “electron”, a “tau” can be thought of as a ‘much heavier version’ of the “electron”)
(because of their ‘greater mass’, ‘tau particles’ do not emit as much “bremsstrahlung radiation” as ‘electrons’; consequently they are potentially ‘highly penetrating’, much more so than ‘electrons’)
(however, because of their ‘short lifetime’, the ‘range’ of the ‘tau’ is mainly set by their ‘decay length’, which is too small for ‘bremsstrahlung’ to be noticeable: their ‘penetrating power’ appears only at ‘ultra-high-energy’ (above “PeV energies”))
.
(as with the case of the other ‘charged leptons’, the “tau” has an associated “tau neutrino”, denoted by ντ)
