Description

We discuss spin effects for W-pair production and decay at LEP2 and higher energies. As an example we use observables in the s anti(s) c anti(c) decay channel: the two-quark/jet invariant-mass distribution and cross section, in the case when the other two may escape detection. We show, the strong interplay of spin correlations and detector cut-off resulting in narrowly peaked distributions. (author)
