Search for New Heavy Charged Bosons and Measurement of High-Mass Drell-Yan Production in Proton-Proton Collisions

This book presents two analyses, the first of which involves the search for a new heavy charged gauge boson, a so-called W¢ boson. This new gauge boson is predicted by some theories extending the Standard Model gauge group to solve some of its conceptual problems. Decays of the W¢ boson in final sta...
