Resum

A measurement of the Michel parameters and the average vτ helicity in τ lepton decays is described. The data was collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP during the years 1991 to 1995. A total integrated luminosity of 155 pb-1 is analysed. The Michel parameters ρl, ξl, (ξδ)l (l = e, μ), and ημ are determined for the leptonic decays, and the chirality parameters ξπ, ξρ, and ξa1 for the hadronic final states. Under the assumptions of e-μ universality and ξπ = ξρ = ξa1, the values ρl = 0.742 ± 0.016, ηl = 0.012 ± 0.026, (ξδ)l = 0.776 ± 0.051, ξl = 0.986 ± 0.074, and ξh = 0.992 ± 0.011 are obtained. No significant deviation is observed from the Standard Model assumption of the V - A structure of the charged weak interaction.
