Abstract
The branching ratio of the radiative tau decay tau(-) --> mu(-)<(nu)ov er bar>(mu)nu(tau)gamma has been measured using data collected with th e OPAL detector at LEP, The result is B(tau(-) --> mu(-)<(nu)over bar> (mu)nu(tau)gamma) = (3.0 +/- 0.4 +/- 0.5) x 10(-3) for photon energies above 20 MeV measured in the tau rest frame. The result is in good ag reement with the Standard Model expectation.
