Abstract

The contribution to precision electroweak measurements due to TeV physics which couples primarily to the W±W^\pm and ZZ bosons may be parameterized in terms of the three `oblique correction' parameters, S, T and U. We extend this parameterization to physics at much lower energies, 100\ge 100 GeV, and show that in this more general case three more parameters are required (which we call V, W and X). Only two of these appear in neutral-current experiments, while the third new parameter enters into the W±W^\pm width.

First repost: We have corrected typos, added a reference, and included a figure missing in the original version. All figures are now included as uuencoded tar files. Second repost: we replaced the abstract on the arXiv, which got mistakenly removed during the first repost
