Abstract: (arXiv)
We measure the mass dependence of the forward-backward charge asymmetry in 157,553 interactions, corresponding to 5.0 fb of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at TeV. The effective weak mixing angle () from this process involving predominantly the first generation of quarks is extracted as . We also present the most precise direct measurement of the vector and axial-vector couplings of and quarks to the boson.Note:
