Abstract
We report on the observation of single W boson production in a data sa mple collected by the L3 detector at LEP2. The signal consists of larg e missing energy final states with a single energetic lepton or two ha dronic jets. The cross-section is measured to be 0.61(-0.33)(+0.43) +/ - 0.05 pb at the centre of mass energy root s = 172 GeV, consistent wi th the Standard Model expectation. From this measurement the following limits on the anomalous gamma WW gauge couplings are derived at 95% C L: -3.6 < Delta kappa gamma < 1.5 and -3.6 < lambda gamma < 3.6.
