60. τ) = 10.975 ± 0.117%. The resulting errors on the coupling constant ratios are: without ALEPH: (gτ/gμ)πτ = 1.0072 ± 0.0069, with ALEPH: (gτ/gμL)πτ = 1.0030 ± 0.0056. This rescaling of the errors is somewhat ad hoc and also has very little effect on the final outcome of our analysis. Therefore, we do not employ this method in this paper.
