Abstract

We have measured the partial width and forward-backward charge asymmetry for the reaction e+e-→Z0→Z0→μ+μ(γ). We obtain a partial width γμμ of 83.3±1.3(stat)±0.9(sys) MeV and the following values for the vector and axial vector couplings: gv=−0.062−0.015+0.020 and gA=−0.497−0.005+0.005. From our measurement of the partial width and the mass of the Z0 boson we determine the effective electroweak mixing angle, sin2θ̅w=0.232±0.005, and the neutral current coupling strength parameter, ϱ=0.998±0.016.
