Outline of Final Research Achievements

Searching for physics beyond the Standard Model has the highest priority in the research of particle physics. We have searched for the effects of new physics based on precision measurements of decay parameters of tau weak decay. Because tau is the heaviest lepton and physics beyond the Standard Model is expected to manifest itself in the heavy particle system particularly, this search has a unique significance. Using data of about 0.9 billion tau events collected by the Belle experiment, we measured decay parameters with the precision improved over previous measurements by an order of magnitude. We also successfully developed a new electromagnetic calorimeter prototype, a key detector component to be used in the upgraded Belle experiment.
