Abstract
We present results from a search for anomalous WW and WZ production in <p(p)over bar> collisions root s = 1.8 TeV. We used <p(p)over bar> -- > e nu jjX events observed during the 1992-1993 run of the Fermilab Te vatron collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 13.7 +/- 0.7 pb(-1). A fit to the transverse momentum spectrum of the W boson yields direct limits on the CP-conserving anomalous WW gamma and WWZ c oupling parameters of -0.9 < Delta kappa < 1.1 (with lambda = 0) and - 0.6 < lambda < 0.7 (with Delta kappa = 0) at the 95% confidence level, for a form factor scale Lambda = 1.5 TeV, assuming that the WW gamma and WWZ coupling parameters are equal.
