FIRST EVIDENCE OF WW/WZ → lνqq̄ AT THE TEVATRON

There are many reasons for studying WW/WZ → lνqq̄ at the Tevatron. From the electroweak prospective, diboson production provides a probe of self-interactions of vector bosons. Deviations from the Standard Model (SM) of these trilinear gauge boson coupling would affect the cross sections and event kinematics of diboson production1. The cross sections for diboson production at the Tevatron had previously only been measured for the fully leptonic final states 2,3, so this analysis provides a compliment to the previous measurements.
