The three different helicity states of W bosons produced in the reaction e+ e- -> W+ W- -> l nu q q~ at LEP are studied using leptonic and hadronic W decays. Data at centre-of-mass energies \sqrt s = 183-209 GeV are used to measure the polarisation of W bosons, and its dependence on the W boson production angle. The fraction of longitudinally polarised W bosons is measured to be 0.218 \pm 0.027 \pm 0.016 where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, in agreement with the Standard Model expectation.

  1. Optimal sensitivity of anomalous charged triple gauge couplings through $W$ boson helicity at the $e^+e^-$ colliders

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    SMEFT sensitivities to anomalous WWV couplings at a 3 TeV e+e- collider are improved by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude over LHC limits when using optimal observables and W helicity selection.
