Abstract

The production of electrons with very high transverse momentum has been studied in the UA2 experiment at the CERN &lt;img src=&quot;/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&amp;src=K5621P2185QK6777_html\10052_2005_Article_BF01576282_TeX2GIFIE2.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; $$\bar pp$$ &quot; /&gt; collider ( &lt;img src=&quot;/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&amp;src=K5621P2185QK6777_html\10052_2005_Article_BF01576282_TeX2GIFIE3.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; $$\sqrt s$$ &quot; /&gt;=540 GeV). From a sample of events containing an electron candidate withp&lt;subscript&gt;T&lt;/subscript&gt;&gt;15 GeV/c, we extract a clear signal resulting from the production of the charged intermediate vector bosonW&lt;superscript&gt;&#177;&lt;/superscript&gt;, which subsequently decays into an electron and a neutrino. We study theW production and decay properties. Further-more, we refine our results on the production and decay of the neutral vector bosonZ&lt;superscript&gt;0&lt;/superscript&gt;. Finally, we compare the experimental results to the predictions of the standard model of the unified electro-weak theory.
