Single W and Z boson production properties and asymmetries

Abstract

Recent analyses of single $W$ and $Z$ boson production properties and asymmetries from the CDF and D\O\ experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron are reported. For $W$ boson production, measurements of the production and lepton charge asymmetries are presented. For $Z/\gamma^*$ production, the following measurements are presented: $d\sigma/dy$, $(1/\sigma) (d\sigma/dp_T)$, $(1/\sigma) (d\sigma/d\phistar)$, lepton angular coefficients, and $A_{FB}$ with extraction of $\sin^2\theta_W$ and the light quark couplings to the $Z$. Most of these measurements are in good agreement with QCD predictions.
