Abstract
We present a measurement of the inclusive production cross section for bosons decaying to tau leptons in collisions at . We use a channel with one hadronically-decaying and one electronically-decaying tau. This measurement is based on of CDF Run II data. Using a sample of 504 opposite sign events with a total expected background of 190 events, we obtain , in agreement with the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD prediction. This is the first CDF cross section measurement using hadronically-decaying taus in Run II.
