Abstract
We describe measurements of inclusive branching ratios of the tau lept on to K-S(0) and charged K(892) using Z(0)-->tau(+)tau(-) candidates collected with the OPAL detector at LEP during 1990-1992. From a total of 61 854 tau candidates we find: )(0)X(-)nu(tau))=0.97+/-0.09(stat.) +/-0.06(syst.)% Br(tau(-)-->K(-)greater than or equal to 0h(0) nu(tau ))=1.94+/-0.27(stat.)+/-0.15(syst.)% where X(-) refers to any configur ation of particles with charge -1 and h(0) is any neutral hadron other than the K-S(0).
