Indirect measurement of sin[superscript 2]θ[subscript W] (or M[subscript W) using μ[superscript +]μ[superscript −] pairs from γ*/Z bosons produced in p[bar over p] collisions at a center-of-momentum energy of 1.96 TeV

Drell-Yan lepton pairs are produced in the process p[bar over p] → μ[superscript +]μ[superscript −] + X through an intermediate γ[superscript ∗]/Zboson. The forward-backward asymmetry in the polar-angle distribution of the μ[superscript −] as a function of the invariant mass of the μ[superscript +]μ...
