Abstract

The possibility of observing an anomaly in triple interactions of a W boson and a photon in the process is considered in the leptonic mode of W-boson decay. It is shown that, in some cases, the use of a bounded phase-space domain instead of the total phase space improves upper limits on the anomalous couplings. The estimates obtained in the above mode under conditions of the TESLA project are poorer than analogous current estimates for all modes of the e + e channel.
