LEFT-RIGHT ASYMMETRIES IN POLARIZED LEPTON-LEPTON SCATTERING - ART. NO. 094026

Several parity-violating left-right asymmetries in Moller electron-ele ctron and muon-muon scattering are considered in the context of the el ectroweak standard model at the tree level in fixed target and collide r experiments. We show that in colliders the asymmetry with only one o f the beams polarized is large enough to compensate the smaller cross section at high energies. We also show that these asymmetries are very sensitive to a doubly charged vector bilepton resonance but they are insensitive to scalar ones. [S0556-2821(98)09219-4].
