Description

Data at collision energies up to 208 GeV collected by LEP experiments have been analysed to extract the W pair production cross section. Combining all LEP2 centre-of-mass energies has allowed the determination of the W decay branching ratios into leptons and hadrons and to derive the value of the CKM matrix element |Vcs|. An update of direct |Vcs| measurements is also presented. (author)
