Abstract

A search for charged, pointlike, spin-0 particles with large couplings to the

τ

lepton has been done at the PEP

e^{+} e^{-}

storage ring (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center). No evidence for such particles is seen, and limits are placed on the branching fraction to

τ ν_{τ}

as a function of mass.
