Abstract

The role of e+e- annihilation in studying the weak neutral current has taken on an increased significance during the last two or three years due to the operation of PETRA and PEP which provide values of s (= C.M. energy2) in excess of 1000 GeV2. Although it was clear from the outset that several years would be needed to collect enough data to make an accurate determination of the neutral current parameters, it was not long after PETRA had started operation that it was realised how even a modest amount of data could put tight limits on some of the lepton couplings [1]. The data also restricted the scope of possible extended gauge models.
