Study of the lowest tensor and scalar resonances in the $\tau \to \pi \pi \pi {\nu }_{\tau }$ decay

Abstract

In this note we present a new parametrization of the hadronic current for the decay $\tau \to \pi \pi \pi {\nu }_{\tau }$ derived from the chiral lagrangian with explicit inclusion of resonances. We have included both scalar, vector and axial-vector resonances. For the first time, the lowest tensor resonance ($f_2(1270)$) is included as well. Both single and double-resonance contributions to the hadronic form factors are taken into account. To satisfy the correct high energy behaviour of the hadronic form factors, constraints on numerical values of the vertex constants are obtained.
