Abstract

Using a dataset of $7.33 {fb}^{- 1}$ of $e^{+} e^{-}$ annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies from 4.128 to 4.226 GeV, we report an updated measurement of the branching fraction of $D_{s}^{+} \to τ^{+} ν_{τ}$ via four $τ^{+}$ decay modes: $τ^{+} \to e^{+} ν_{e} {\bar{ν}}_{τ}$ , $μ^{+} ν_{μ} {\bar{ν}}_{τ}$ , $π^{+} {\bar{ν}}_{τ}$ , and $π^{+} π^{0} {\bar{ν}}_{τ}$ . The branching fraction is determined to be $B (D_{s}^{+} \to τ^{+} ν_{τ}) = (5.37 \pm 0.0 8_{stat} \pm 0.0 6_{syst}) %$ . The product of the modulus of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $| V_{c s} |$ and the $D_{s}^{+}$ decay constant $f_{D_{s}^{+}}$ is measured to be $f_{D_{s}^{+}} | V_{c s} | = (248.2 \pm {1.9}_{stat} \pm {1.4}_{syst} \pm {0.6}_{input} \pm {0.8}_{EM}) MeV$ . Both the branching fraction and the product $f_{D_{s}^{+}} | V_{c s} |$ are the most precise results yet obtained. Then, taking $f_{D_{s}^{+}}$ from lattice quantum chromodynamics calculations results in $| V_{c s} | = 0.993 \pm 0.00 8_{stat} \pm 0.00 6_{syst} \pm 0.00 3_{input} \pm 0.00 3_{EM}$ . Conversely, one finds $f_{D_{s}^{+}} = (255.0 \pm {1.9}_{stat} \pm {1.4}_{syst} \pm {0.6}_{input} \pm {0.8}_{EM}) MeV$ when taking $| V_{c s} |$ from the CKMfitter group as an input. Combining with the world average value of $D_{s}^{+} \to μ^{+} ν_{μ}$ , the ratio of the branching fractions between $D_{s}^{+} \to τ^{+} ν_{τ}$ and $D_{s}^{+} \to μ^{+} ν_{μ}$ is estimated to be $10.04 \pm 0.29$ , which is consistent with the Standard Model prediction of lepton flavor universality.
