Measurement of charged current deep inelastic scattering cross sections with a longitudinally polarised electron beam at HERA

Description

Measurements of the cross sections for charged current deep inelastic scattering in e-p collisions with longitudinally polarised electron beams are presented. The measurements are based on a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 175 pb-1 collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA at a centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV. The total cross section is given for positively and negatively polarised electron beams. The differential cross-sections dσ/dQ2, dσ/dx and dσ/dy are presented for Q2>200 GeV2. The double-differential cross-section d 2σ/dxdQ2 is presented in the kinematic range 280<Q2<30,000 GeV2 and 0.015<x<0.65. The measured cross sections are compared with the predictions of the Standard Model. (orig.)
