Abstract

We have measured the WWγ gauge boson coupling parameters using p\n¯\np→ℓνγ+X ( ℓ=e,μ) events at √s=1.8 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 92.8pb−1, were collected using the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measured cross section times branching ratio for p\n¯\np→Wγ+X with p\nγ\nT&amp;gt;10 GeV/c and Rℓγ&amp;gt;0.7 is 11.3\n+1.7\n−1.5±1.5 pb, in agreement with the standard model prediction. The 1 degree of freedom 95% confidence level limits on individual CP-conserving parameters are −0.93&amp;lt;Δκ&amp;lt;0.94 and −0.31&amp;lt;λ&amp;lt;0.29. Similar limits are set on the CP-violating coupling parameters.
