Neutral-current four-fermion production, e+e- -> ffff is studied in 0.7/fb of data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies root(s)=183-209GeV. Four final states are considered: qqvv, qqll, llll and llvv, where l…
We present precision calculations of the processes e+e- -> 4-fermions in which the double resonant W+W- intermediate state occurs. Referring to this latter intermediate state as the 'signal process', we show that, by using the YFS Monte…
The calculation of the full electroweak O(alpha) corrections to the charged-current four-fermion production processes e+e- --> nu_tau tau+ mu- anti-nu_mu, u anti-d mu- anti-nu_mu, and u anti-d s anti-c is briefly reviewed. The calculation…
For the envisioned precision measurement of the W-boson mass at present and future lepton and hadron colliders it is crucial that the theoretical predictions for the underlying production processes are well under control. We briefly…
We examine capabilities of the modified perturbation theory (MPT) for description of the processes with productions and decays of fundamental unstable particles. We calculate total cross-section for $e^{+} e^{-} \to \gamma,Z \to W^{+} W^{-}…
The complete electroweak O(alpha) corrections have been calculated for the charged-current four-fermion production processes e+e- --> nu_tau tau+ mu- anti-nu_mu, u anti-d mu- anti-nu_mu, and u anti-d s anti-c. Here, technical details of…
We discuss theoretical predictions for W-pair production and decay at LEP2 and higher energies in a form suitable for comparison with raw data. We present a practical framework for calculating uncertainties of predictions given by the…
The processes $e^{+}e^{-} \to 4f(\gamma)$ mediated by W-pair (and single) production are considered in the framework of the modified perturbation theory, based on the expansion of probability in powers of the coupling constant instead of…
Near-threshold production of neutral boson pairs is considered within the framework of the model of unstable particles with smeared mass. The results of calculations are in good agreement with LEP II data and Monte-Carlo simulations.
Next-to-next-to-leading contributions to the cross section sigma(e+e- -> tau+tau-) at energies close to threshold are analysed, taking into account the known non-relativistic effects and O(alpha^2) corrections. The numerical changes with…
The complete electroweak O(alpha) corrections are calculated for the charged-current four-fermion production processes e+e- --> nu_tau tau+ mu- anti-nu_mu, u anti-d mu- anti-nu_mu, and u anti-d s anti-c. The calculation is performed using…
In this paper we study the non-factorizable QED corrections to W-pair-mediated (charged-current) four-fermion production in electron-positron collisions. A brief account of the obtained analytical results is given. They turn out to be…
Radiative corrections to processes that involve the production and subsequent decay of unstable particles are complex due to various theoretical and practical problems. The so-called double-pole approximation offers a way out of these…
I give a short report on the semi-analytical approach to off-shell W pair production. In particular, I show the effects of irreducible background diagrams of the CC11 class in the differential cross-section. Further, I study the influence…
Electroweak processes with four fermions in the final state were measured extensively at LEP-2 in e+e- collisions with centre-of-mass energies up to 209 GeV. By combining the results obtained by Aleph, Delphi, L3 and Opal, the predictions…
We present a study of single-W production ($e^+e^-\to e^-\bar{\nu}_e W^+$) as a new probe of the anomalous couplings at the LEP energy region. We introduce simple cuts to separate the single-W process from W-pair production and have…
The most interesting theoretical features of W-pair production in e+e- collisions are reviewed. Based on an analysis of on-shell W-pairs, it is shown that the mere inclusion of leading $O(\alpha)$ corrections--such as initial-state…
We review the results on representing the differential cross section for W-pair production, including W decay and hard-photon bremsstrahlung, in terms of a Born-form approximation of fairly simple analytic form.
The cross sections and forward-backward asymmetries of hadronic and leptonic events produced in e+e- collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 130-183 GeV are presented. Results for ee, mumu, tautau, qq, bb and cc production show no…
The top-quark, $W$ and $Z^0$ bosons have widths that are a sizable fraction of their masses and will be produced copiously at upcoming accelerators. Yet S-matrix theory cannot treat unstable particles as external states. Dealing with…
