Search for Anomalous Couplings at $e\gamma$ Colliders

Abstract

We consider the possibility of observing deviations from the Standard Model gauge-boson self-couplings at future $e\gamma$ colliders. We concentrate on the process $e^-\gamma \rightarrow \nu W^- Z$, which is particularly sensitive to the parity violating coupling $g_5^Z$ at high energies. We find that a 2~TeV $e^+ e^-$ collider operating in the $e^- \gamma$ mode could reach a sensitivity of order $5\times 10^{-3}$ to $g_5^Z$.
