Improved direct measurement of leptonic coupling asymmetries with polarized Z bosons

Direct measurements of the asymmetry parameters Ae, Aμ, and AT using leptonic Z decays were carried out based on the 3.8 X 105Zs collected during 1996-1998 by the SLAC Large Detector (SLD) experiment at the SLC. The results were combined with earlier leptonic asymmetry measurements and the more prec...

Description
Summary:Direct measurements of the asymmetry parameters Ae, Aμ, and AT using leptonic Z decays were carried out based on the 3.8 X 105Zs collected during 1996-1998 by the SLAC Large Detector (SLD) experiment at the SLC. The results were combined with earlier leptonic asymmetry measurements and the more precise left-right asymmetry measurements using Z decays to hadrons.
