Abstract: (Elsevier)

We study the characteristics of the μe events due to e + e − → W + W − and the subsequent leptonic decay of W ± , in the Weinberg-Salam model. The differential cross section for W production is given for non-polarized electron-positron beams as well as transversely polarized beams. The energy angle distributions as well as angular correlations of the final μe events are presented for beam energy of 100 + 100 GeV. Potential backgrounds are also discussed.
