Identification of tau leptons at the DZero experiment

The article describes the identification of hadronically decaying tau leptons in ppbar collisions at 1.96 TeV collected by the DZero detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. After a brief description of the motivations and the challenges of considering tauleptons in high energy hadronic collisions, details of the tau reconstruction and identification will be discussed. The challenges associated for tau energy measurements in an hadronic environment will be presented including approaches to deal with such measurements.
