No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-04-01; We present a measurement of the cross section for Z production times the branching fraction to τ leptons, σ·Br(Z → τ<sup>+</sup>τ<sup>-</sup>), in pp̄ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV in the channel in which one τ decays into μν<inf>μ</inf>ν <inf>τ</inf>, and the other into hadrons + ν<inf>τ</inf> or eν<inf>...
