Measurements of Charged Current Lepton Universality and vertical bar V-us vertical bar Using Tau Lepton Decays to e(-)(nu)over-bar(e)nu(tau), mu(-)(nu)over-bar(mu)nu(tau), pi(-)nu(tau), and K-nu(tau)

Using 467 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector, we measure B(tau(-)->mu(-)(nu) over bar (mu)nu(tau))/B(tau(-)-> e(-)(nu) over bar (e)nu(tau)) = (0.9796 +/- 0.0016 +/- 0.0036), B(tau(-)->pi(-)nu(tau))/B(tau(-)-> e(-)nu(e)nu(tau)) = (0.5945 +/- 0.0014 +/-...
