The τ − → ( 3 π ) − η ν τ , τ − → ( 3 π ) − ω ν τ , and τ − → π − f 1 ( 1285 ) ν τ branching fractions are presented, as well as a new limit on the branching fraction of the second-class current decay τ − → π − η ′ ( 958 ) ν τ . We search for the decay mode τ − → K − η ′ ( 958 ) ν τ and for five-prong decay modes with kaons, and place the first upper limits on their branching fractions.16 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2012Leptons (Física nuclear)ExperimentsFísica de partículesLeptons (Nuclear physics)ExperimentsParticle physicsStudy of high-multiplicity three-prong and five-prong τ decays at BABARinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6324322019-04-08info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
