Measurement of e+e-†bb forward-backward charge asymmetry between ss =52 and 57 GeV
1989
Using 123 multihadronic inclusive muon-production ${e}^{+}$${e}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ annihilation events at an average c.m. energy of 55.2 GeV, we extracted the forward-backward charge asymmetry of the ${e}^{+}$${e}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}bb\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{} process and the R ratio for bb\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{} production. We used an analysis method in which the behavior of the c quark and lighter quarks is assumed, with only that of the b quark left indeterminate. The results, ${A}_{b}$=-0.72\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.28(stat)\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.13(syst) and ${R}_{b}$=0.57\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.16\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.10, are consistent with the standard model.
