We present a measurement of the $\tau$-lepton mass using a sample of about 175 million $e^+e^- \to \tau^+\tau^-$ events collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB $e^+e^-$ collider at a center-of-mass energy of $10.579\,\mathrm{Ge\kern -0.1em V}$. This sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $190\,\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$. We use the kinematic edge of the $\tau $ pseudomass distribution in the decay ${\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-\nu_\tau}$ and measure the $\tau$ mass to be $1777.09 \pm 0.08 \pm 0.11 \,\mathrm{Me\kern -0.1em V\!/c^2}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. This result is the most precise to date.

Radiation effects on the entanglement of fermion pairs at colliders
hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0
Energetic radiation induces decoherence that significantly reduces entanglement in fermion pairs at colliders, with statistically significant signals observable in ttbar(g) at the LHC and tau pairs at Belle II.

Projections of H$\to\tau\tau$ cross-section at FCC-ee
hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 4.0
FCC-ee projections indicate at least 10 times better precision on the H to tau tau cross-section than the LHC through ZH and VBF channels plus improved tau reconstruction methods.
