Electroweak Results from the SLD Experiment
M. Woods
Abstract
We present an overview of the electroweak physics program of the SLD experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). A data sample of 550K Z0 decays has been collected. This experiment utilizes a highly polarized electron beam, a small interaction volume, and a very precise pixel vertex detector. We present a preliminary result for the weak mixing angle, sin2(thetaw)=0.23110 +- 0.00029. We also present a preliminary result for the parity violating parameter, Ab = 0.898 +- 0.029. These measurements are used to test for physics beyond the Standard Model.
