Abstract

The recent measurements of the Michel parameters in tau decays enable, for the first time, a thorough analysis of the leptonic sector. In general, in models beyond the Standard Model, these parameters will be altered through changes in the W and Z couplings, and/or through interactions mediated by new gauge bosons. We perform a complete, model independent analysis of the constraints imposed by the present data on such boson-mediated interactions, and point out the existence of useful relations among the couplings.
