Abstract
Density matrix elements for a Z-boson created in the reaction e++e−→Z+γ, are computed. Two reference frames are used in computations: the center-of-mass frame of the reaction e++e−→Z+γ with polarization states of the Z-boson specified by the polarization 4-vector with definite helicities, and the rest frame of the Z-boson. In both cases P-odd phenomena should stipulate particular combinations of the density matrix elements. The energy behavior of the total cross-section of the process e++e−→Z+γ is studied.
