Test of the Standard model with weak bosons in UA1

UA1 collaboration, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

Since the discovery in 1983 of the intermediate vector bosons W and Z, the number of events has considerably increased so that one can now study their properties more precisely. All physics aspects are covered, with particular emphasis on the tests of QCD through the W, Z production properties. The experimental distributions investigated confirm everywhere Standard Model (electroweak and QCD) expectations atQ 2=M 2w .
