The Polarization Asymmetry in $γe$ Collisions at the NLC and Triple Gauge Boson Couplings

Abstract

The capability of the NLC in the $γe$ collider mode to probe the CP-conserving $γWW$ and $γZZ$ anomalous couplings through the use of the polarization asymmetry is examined. When combined with other measurements, very strong constraints on both varieties of anomalous couplings can be obtained. We show that these bounds are complementary to those that can be extracted from data taken at the LHC.
