We examine the processes $e^+ e^-\longrightarrow W^+ W^-$ and $Z^0 Z^0$ in the context of the $SP(6)_L\otimes U(1)_Y$ model. We find that there are significant deviations in the total cross sections $\sigma (s)$ from the standard model…
We present cross sections for production of electroweak vector boson pairs, $WW$, $WZ$ and $ZZ$, in $p\bar{p}$ and $pp$ collisions, at next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. We treat the leptonic decays of the bosons in the narrow-width…
