A determination of quark weak couplings with the JADE detector at PETRA energies

  • 1. Heidelberg Univ. (Germany, F.R.). Physikalisches Inst.

Description

Data on hadron production by e+e- annihilation at CM energies between 12 and 36.6 GeV have been collected using the JADE detector. They have been analyzed in terms of single photon and weak neutral current exchange assuming production of quark-antiquark pairs with only d, u, s, c and b quarks. An analysis in terms of the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg theory produced the result, sin2thetasub(W) = 0.22+-0.08. The theory has therefore been tested in a new energy domain and within the context of the neutral weak couplings of the first, second and third generation quarks
