Z-Z'; Mixing in W± Pair Production at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
V. V. Andreev, A. A. Pankov

We discuss the expected sensitivity to Z' boson effects of the W± boson pair production process at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The results of the model dependent analysis of Z' boson effects are presented as the constraints on Z-Z' mixing angle φ and Z' boson mass. We find that the process pp → W+W- + X allows to place stringent constraints on the Z - Z' mixing angle which is of order ∼ 10-4 - 10-3 for MZ' > 3 TeV at the nominal LHC energy and luminosity.


Key words: Z'-boson, Z - Z' mixing, pair production
