Abstract:
A measurement of WW production in pp collisions at {Mathematical expression} is presented. The data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.92±0.11 fb. The WW candidates consist of two oppositely charged leptons, electrons or muons, accompanied by large missing transverse energy. The WW production cross section is measured to be 52.4±2.0 (stat.)±4.5 (syst.)±1.2 (lum.) pb. This measurement is consistent with the standard model prediction of 47.0±2.0 pb at next-to-leading order. Stringent limits on the WW γ and WWZ anomalous triple gauge-boson couplings are set. © 2013 CERN for the benefit of the CMS collaboration .
