Abstract

The τ indentification and reconstruction algorithms developed for the CMS experiment at LHC are presented. The algorithms are aimed to an efficient selection of hadronic decays of the τ lepton. Reconstruction methods suitable for use at the High Level Trigger and off-line are described in detail.
