Anomalous Couplings in W Pair Production1
نویسنده
چکیده
I present a short overview over W pair production and studies of angular differential cross-sections with and without initial state radiation applying semianalytical methods and using the Fortran program GENTLE. The influence of anomalous couplings to this process is also discussed. Talk given at Zeuthen Workshop on Loops and Legs in Gauge Theories, 19–24 April 1998, Rheinsberg, Germany

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 کاملAnomalous Couplings at Lep2
In its second phase, LEP has allowed to study four fermion processes never observed before. Results are presented on the charged triple gauge boson couplings (TGC) from the W-pair, Single W and Single γ production. The anomalous quartic gauge couplings (QGC) are constrained using production of W W γ, ν ¯ νγγ and Zγγ final states. Finally, limits on the neutral anomalous gauge couplings (NGC) us...
متن کاملSemi-analytic predictions for W pair production at 500 GeV
We give a short review on the semi-analytic approach to off-shell W pair production at 500 GeV and above. Numerical calculations are performed with the Fortran program GENTLE v. 2.0 and its upgrade. Recent extensions include: (i) angular distribution for the CC11 process with LLA QED corrections; (ii) anomalous couplings. As an application we study the sensitivity of total cross-section and for...
متن کاملATLAS sensitivity to Wtb anomalous couplings in top quark decays
We study the sensitivity of the ATLAS experiment to Wtb anomalous couplings in top pair production with semileptonic decay, pp→ tt̄→WbWb̄ with one of the W bosons decaying leptonically and the other hadronically. Several observables are examined, including the W helicity fractions and new quantities recently introduced, such as the ratios of helicity fractions and some angular asymmetries defined...
متن کاملFour-Fermion Production with Anomalous Couplings at LEP2 and NLC1
I give a short report on the semi-analytical approach to off-shell W pair production. In particular, I show the effects of irreducible background diagrams of the CC11 class in the differential cross-section. Further, I study the influence of potential anomalous couplings at a future linear collider and investigate the sensitivity of the forward-backward asymmetry to anomalous couplings. Talk gi...
