Abstract: (arXiv)

We present a search for a new heavy charged vector boson

W^\prime

decaying to an electron-neutrino pair in

p\bar{p}

collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The data were collected with the CDF II detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of

5.3 fb^{-1}

. No significant excess above the standard model expectation is observed and we set upper limits on

\sigma\cdot{\cal B}(W^\prime\to e\nu)

. Assuming standard model couplings to fermions and the neutrino from the

W^\prime

boson decay to be light, we exclude a

W^\prime

boson with mass less than 1.12 TeV/

c^2

at the 95 confidence level.
