Electroweak Cross-sections and Widths

Description

The status of W and Z cross-section and width measurements from the CDF and D0 experiments is reviewed. Recent results that are discussed: the cross-section for Z production times the branching ratio to tau pairs, the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of Z production in the electron channel, and the direct measurements of the W width and the Z invisible width; the latter from an analysis of events with large missing transverse energy and one or more energetic jets
