Single W Production at Lep 2
نویسنده
چکیده
Single W and single gamma productions which are sensitive to the trilinear gauge coupling WWγ have been studied at LEP. It is shown that single W production has particular sensitivity to the 'anomalous' magnetic moment κγ of the W boson, complementary to WW production at LEP and Wγ production at hadron colliders. The invisible decay of W boson has been searched and the limit on the invisible decay width of 27 MeV at 95 % C.L. has been obtained.

Study on the single - W production at LEP energies ∗
We present a study of single-W production (ee → eν̄eW ) as a new probe of the anomalous couplings at the LEP energy region. The cross-section measurement of the single-W process is found to give complementary bounds on the anomalous couplings to those obtained from W-pair analysis at LEP2. ∗Invited talk at the Third International Symposium on Radiative Corrections, Cracow, Poland, 1-5 August 199...
متن کاملSingle-W production to test triple gauge boson couplings at LEP
We present a study of single-W production (ee → eν̄eW ) as a new probe of the anomalous couplings at the LEP energy region. We introduce simple cuts to separate the single-W process from Wpair production and have performed cross-section calculations using 4-fermion generator “grc4f”. The cross-section of the single-W process is found to be large enough to detect at LEP experiments in the near fu...

This report summarises the results of the four-fermion working group of the LEP2-MC workshop, held at CERN from 1999 to 2000. Recent developments in the calculation of four-fermion processes in electron-positron collisions at LEP-2 centre-of-mass energies are presented, concentrating on predictions for four main reactions: W-pair production, visible photons in four-fermion events, single-W prod...

Recent theoretical developments in ee-annihilation into fermion pairs are summarized. In particular, two-fermion production, DPA for W −W signal, single-W production and Z − Z signal After an illustrious career LEP stops running rather soon so it is unlikely there will be any more data in this energy region and we all must try to do the best we can to get the most accurate measurements and the ...

After 12 years of glorious data taking LEP has been shut down. During the past two years an incredible effort has been devoted to get more accurate predictions and estimates of the related theoretical uncertainties [1]. Many of the theoretical questions driven by LEP are also relevant at the LC, where predictions will be needed with even higher accuracy. This is particularly true for 4fermion P...
