We report the first measurement of the $tau$ lepton polarization $P_tau(D^*)$ in the decay $bar{B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau$ as well as a new measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = mathcal{B}(bar {B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau) / mathcal{B}(bar{B} rightarrow D^* ell^- bar{ u}_ell)$, where $ell^-$ denotes an electron or a muon, and the $tau$ is reconstructed in the modes $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_tau$ and $tau^- rightarrow rho^- u_tau$. We use the full data sample of $772 times 10^6$ $B{bar B}$ pairs recorded with the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider. Our results, $P_tau(D^*) = -0.38 pm 0.51 {rm (stat.)} ^{+0.21}_{-0.16} {rm (syst.)}$ and $R(D^*) = 0.270 pm 0.035{rm (stat.)} ^{+0.028}_{-0.025}{rm (syst.)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model.

With the full data sample of $772 times 10^6$ $B{bar B}$ pairs recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider, the decay $bar{B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau$ is studied with the hadronic $tau$ decays $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_tau$ and $tau^- rightarrow rho^- u_tau$. The $tau$ polarization $P_tau(D^*)$ in two-body hadronic $tau$ decays is measured, as well as the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = mathcal{B}(bar {B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau) / mathcal{B}(bar{B} rightarrow D^* ell^- bar{ u}_ell)$, where $ell^-$ denotes an electron or a muon. Our results, $P_tau(D^*) = -0.38 pm 0.51 {rm (stat)} ^{+0.21}_{-0.16} {rm (syst)}$ and $R(D^*) = 0.270 pm 0.035{rm (stat)} ^{+0.028}_{-0.025}{rm (syst)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model. The polarization values of $P_tau(D^*) > +0.5$ are excluded at the 90% confidence level.
We report the first measurement of the $tau$ lepton polarization in the decay ${bar B} rightarrow D^* tau^- {bar u_{tau}}$ as well as a new measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = mathcal{B}({bar B} rightarrow D^* tau^- {bar u _{tau}}) / mathcal{B}({bar B} rightarrow D^* ell^- {bar u_{ell}})$, where $ell^-$ denotes an electron or a muon, with the decays $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_{tau}$ and $tau^- rightarrow rho^- u_{tau}$. We use the full data sample of $772 times 10^6$ $B{bar B}$ pairs accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider. Our preliminary results, $R(D^*) = 0.276 pm 0.034{rm (stat.)} ^{+0.029} _{-0.026}{rm (syst.)}$ and $P_{tau} = -0.44 pm 0.47 {rm (stat.)} ^{+0.20} _{-0.17} {rm (syst.)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model within $0.6$ standard deviation.
We report a measurement of the branching fraction ratios R(D(*)) of Bbar -> D(*) tau- nubar_tau relative to Bbar -> D()* l- nubar_l (where l = e or mu) using the full Belle data sample of 772 x 10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with t he Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The measured values are R(D)= 0.375 +- 0.064(stat.) +- 0.026(syst.) and R(D*) = 0.293 +- 0.038(stat.) +- 0.015(syst.). The analysis uses hadronic reconstruction of the tag-side B meson and purely leptonic tau decays. The results are consistent with earlier measurements and do not show a significant deviation from the standard model prediction.
At present, the measurements of $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{J/psi}$ hint at new physics (NP) in $b to c tau^- {bar u}$ decays. The angular distribution of ${bar B} to D^* (to D pi) , tau^{-} {bar u}_tau$ would be useful for getting information about the NP , but it cannot be measured. The reason is that the three-momentum ${vec p}_tau$ cannot be determined precisely since the decay products of the $tau^-$ include an undetected $ u_tau$. In this paper, we construct a measurable angular distribution by considering the additional decay $tau^- to pi^- u_tau$. The full process is ${bar B} to D^* (to D pi) , tau^{-} (to pi^- u_tau) {bar u}_tau$, which includes three final-state particles whose three-momenta can be measured: $D$, $pi$, $pi^-$. The magnitudes and relative phases of all the NP parameters can be extracted from a fit to this angular distribution. One can measure CP-violating angular asymmmetries. If one integrates over some of the five kinematic parameters parametrizing the angular distribution, one obtains (i) familiar observables such as the $q^2$ distribution and the $D^*$ polarization, and (ii) new observables associated with the $pi^-$ emitted in the $tau$ decay: the forward-backward asymmetry of the $pi^-$ and the CP-violating triple-product asymmetry.
We evaluate long-distance electromagnetic (QED) contributions to $bar{B}{}^0 to D^+ tau^{-} bar{ u}_{tau}$ and $B^- to D^0 tau^{-} bar{ u}_{tau}$ relative to $bar{B}{}^0 to D^+ mu^{-} bar{ u}_{mu}$ and $B^- to D^0 mu^{-} bar{ u}_{mu}$, respectively, in the standard model. We point out that the QED corrections to the ratios $R(D^{+})$ and $R(D^{0})$ are not negligible, contrary to the expectation that radiative corrections are almost canceled out in the ratio of the two branching fractions. The reason is that long-distance QED corrections depend on the masses and relative velocities of the daughter particles. We find that theoretical predictions for $R(D^{+})^{tau/mu}$ and $R(D^{0})^{tau/mu}$ can be amplified by $sim4%$ and $sim3%$, respectively, for the soft-photon energy cut in range $20$-$40$ MeV.
