Measurement of the W→eν and Z/γ*→e[superscript +]e[superscript -] production cross sections at mid-rapidity in proton-proton collisions at √s=500  GeV

We report measurements of the charge-separated W[superscript +(-)]→e[superscript +(-)]+ν[subscript e](ν̅ [subscript e]) and Z/γ[superscript *]→e[superscript +]e[superscript -] production cross sections at mid-rapidity in proton-proton collisions at √s=500  GeV. These results are based on 13.2  pb[su...
