Limits on anomalous trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW, WZ and Wgamma production in pp-bar collisions at sqrts=1.96 TeV
Abstract
We present final searches of the anomalous gammaWW and ZWW trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW and WZ production using lepton plus dijet final states and a combination with results from Wgamma, WW, and WZ production with leptonic final states. The analyzed data correspond to up to 8.6/fb of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 detector in pp-bar collisions at sqrts=1.96 TeV. We set the most stringent limits at a hadron collider to date assuming two different relations between the anomalous coupling parameters Deltaγ, lambda, and Delta g1Z for a cutoff energy scale Lambda=2 TeV. The combined 68% C.L. limits are -0.057<Deltaγ<0.154, -0.015<lambda<0.028, and -0.008<Delta g1Z<0.054 for the LEP parameterization, and -0.007<Delta<0.081 and -0.017<lambda<0.028 for the equal couplings parameterization. We also present the most stringent limits of the W boson magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments.
