Model independent constraints on anomalous gauge boson self-couplings from $e^+e^-$ colliders with longitudinally polarized beams

We explore the possibility of deriving model independent limits on the anomalous trilinear electroweak gauge boson couplings from high energy $e^+e^-\to W^+W^-$, by combining the cross sections for the different initial and final states polarizations integrated with suitable kinematical cuts. In the case of the CP conserving couplings the limits can be disentangled, and are given by simple mathematical expressions. Numerical results show the advantages of this approach, in particular the important role of polarization in improving the bounds.
