Using data collected with the CLEO-III detector at the CESR e+e- collider, we report on a first observation of the decay of the Upsilon(3S) to tau tau, and precisely measure the ratio of branching fractions of Upsilon(nS),n=1,2,3 to tau tau and mu mu final states, finding agreement with expectations from lepton universality. We derive absolute branching fractions for these decays, and also set a limit on the influence of a low mass CP-odd Higgs boson in the decay of the Upsilon(1S).

  1. Hiding in the Shadow of the Upsilon: Ditaus from a Light Pseudoscalar

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A light pseudoscalar near the Υ(1S) mass, mixing with two Higgs doublets in the alignment limit, accounts for the anomalous ditau rate while evading existing constraints.

  2. Signals of New Resonances from Di-Lepton Non-Universality in the Bottomonium Mass Region at the Large Hadron Collider

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Narrow spin-zero bosons with chirality-violating couplings can produce large di-tau non-universality in the bottomonium mass region at the LHC while preserving universality at e+e- colliders.
