Abstract: (Elsevier)
We use an effective lagrangian to study the leading corrections to WW γ and WWZ vertices from new, weak isospin conserving, heavy physics. The corrections occur in g z 1 −1, k Z −1, and k A −1 and input from low energy QCD is used to estimate their size in technicolor theories. We then study the enhancement of these corrections in the process e + e − → W + W − at high energies.
