Abstract
In view of the forthcoming results on W-+/- pair production at LEP 2, we emphasize that direct empirical evidence on non-trivial properties of the weak vector bosons can be obtained with relatively limited inte grated luminosity. An integrated luminosity of 10 pb(-1) at root s = 1 75 GeV will be sufficient to provide direct experimental evidence for non-vanishing self-couplings of non-Abelian type among the weak vector bosons. An integrated luminosity of 100 pb(-1) at root s = 175 GeV wi ll provide direct evidence for the existence of an anomalous magnetic dipole moment of the charged vector bosons W-+/-.
