Book excerpt: We present direct measurements of the neutral weak anomalous magnetic dipole moment, a[sub[tau]][sup w], and neutral weak electric dipole moment, d[sub[tau]][sup w], of the tau lepton. The dipole moments are measured by analyzing the decays of[tau] leptons produced in the annihilation of positrons and longitudinally polarized electrons on the Z boson resonance at the SLC. Using 6736 Z decays to[tau][sup+][tau][sup[minus]] pairs elected from our 1993-1998 data sample we obtain Re(a[sub[tau]][sup w])= (0.26[+-] 1.24) x 10[sup[minus]3], Im(a[sub[tau]][sup w])= ([minus]0.02[+-] 0.66) x 10[sup[minus]3], Re(d[sub[tau]][sup w])= (0.18[+-] 0.67) x 10[sup[minus]17] e[center-dot] cm, and Im(D[sub[tau]][sup w])= ([minus]0.26[+-] 0.37) x 10[sup[minus]17] e[center-dot] cm.
