Oblique electroweak corrections and triple vector boson couplings

Abstract

We relate all $C$-- and $P$--invariant anomalous triple vector--boson couplings to the oblique electroweak parameters. LEP constraints on the latter then yield the strongest and most general simultaneous bounds to date on the former. Even if the oblique parameters assume their Standard Model values precisely, these bounds would not shrink to zero---thus underscoring the need for direct experimental probes at future colliders.
