Errata for the 1997 WWW Review of Particle Physics

During the time between editions of the Review of Particle Physics and the Particle Physics Booklet, we often find a number of errata. We correct most errata on our WWW pages. If you should find errata that are not known to us, please send mail to pdg@lbl.gov.

We present the following errata (all corrected on the WWW):

• B+-/B0/B(s)0/b-baryon Admixture (Meson Listings) (September 24, 1997):
  • In the Mean Life measurement on page 1, the author identification code for the first data line was given as AKERS 97;
    it has been corrected to ACKERSTAFF 97F.
    The same correction has been made in the list of references on page 12 (ZPHY C73 397).

• CP Violation
  • (January 22, 1998): On page 2, line 6
    Im epsilon should be Im tilde epsilon.
  • (February 19, 1998): On page 3, equation 12.10
    The term
             (Gamma_a(t)+Gammabar_a(t))
    was omitted from the denominatior, but is now included.

• QCD
  • (April 15, 1998): On page 11, second sentence
    The term
             R_tau=1/(B(tau --> e nu nubar) = 1.97256;
    should read
             R_tau=1/(B(tau --> e nu nubar) -1.97256;
    (The second `=' is really a `-'.)
