Abstract

We present decay properties of W± and Zo, and give numerical estimates of their decay rates and branching ratios for leptonic, hadronic and higher order rare decays in the standard SU(3)c × SU(2)L × U(1) model. In addition we discuss bounds on the number of neutrino species and their cosmological implications.
