Abstract

A study of Z boson pair production in e⁺e^- annihilation at center-of-mass energies near 183 GeV and 189 GeV is reported. Final states containing only leptons, (l⁺l^-l⁺l^- and l⁺l-vv̄), quark and lepton pairs, (qq̄l⁺l^-, qq̄vv̄) and the all-hadronic final state (qq̄qq̄) are considered. In all states with at least one Z boson decaying hadronically, qq̄ and bb̄ final states are considered separately using lifetime and event-shape tags, thereby improving the cross-section measurement. At √s = 189 GeV the Z-pair cross section was measured to be 0.80_-0.13/^+0.14(stat.)_-0.05/^+0.06 (syst.) pb, consistent with the Standard Model prediction. At √s = 183 GeV the 95% C.L. upper limit is 0.55 pb. Limits on anomalous ZZγ and ZZZ couplings are derived. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

N2 - A study of Z boson pair production in e+e- annihilation at center-of-mass energies near 183 GeV and 189 GeV is reported. Final states containing only leptons, (l+l-l+l- and l+l-vv̄), quark and lepton pairs, (qq̄l+l-, qq̄vv̄) and the all-hadronic final state (qq̄qq̄) are considered. In all states with at least one Z boson decaying hadronically, qq̄ and bb̄ final states are considered separately using lifetime and event-shape tags, thereby improving the cross-section measurement. At √s = 189 GeV the Z-pair cross section was measured to be 0.80-0.13/+0.14(stat.)-0.05/+0.06 (syst.) pb, consistent with the Standard Model prediction. At √s = 183 GeV the 95% C.L. upper limit is 0.55 pb. Limits on anomalous ZZγ and ZZZ couplings are derived. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
