On the determination of the trilinear boson couplings in e^-e^+ --> lepton anti-neutrino quark anti-quark at LEPII

Abstract

We present the full tree-order calculation of the process $e^+e^-\to\ell\bar{\nu}_\ell\; q \bqp$ including the width effects in a way which is consistent with gauge invariance and high energy unitarity and which has a natural interpretation within standard perturbation theory. We also include C- and P-preserving deviations from Standard Model trilinear vector boson couplings. An analysis of the sensitivity of these channels on the trilinear couplings, using well measured angular variables of the four fermion final state, is also presented.
