We have considered the ‘neutrino counting’ reaction [Formula: see text]. We restrict to V, A Lorentz structure of weak neutral interaction (WNI), allow many Z bosons to mediate WNI and νi to be different from νj. We derive the expression for differential cross section by allowing the polarizations of e+ and e− but summing over the polarizations of final photons. From the study of differential cross section with polarized and unpolarized beams three different coupling constant combinations can be determined. A definite relation between these observables and the observables in [Formula: see text] scatterings is suggested as a test of single-Z-boson hypothesis. Similarly another test relates observables in [Formula: see text] to those of [Formula: see text] scatterings. By assuming universality a test for presence of nondiagonal neutrino neutral currents (NDνNC’s) is also pointed out. The effects of presence of wrong-handed (anti-) neutrinos on our tests are also discussed. As a by-product, we find a way to determine number of neutrino types, in the case i≠j, assuming universality.

We present the most recent precision electroweak measurements of single W and Z boson cross section and properties from the LHC and Tevatron colliders, analyzing data collected by ATLAS, CDF, CMS, D0, and LHCb detectors. The results include the measurement of the single W and Z boson cross section at LHC, the differential cross section measurements, the measurement of W boson mass, the measurement of W and Z charge asymmetry. These measurements provide precision tests on the electroweak theory, high order predictions and the information can be used to constraint parton distribution functions.

To detect off-shell Abelian Z′ boson in e+e-→μ+μ-, we propose one-parameter observables with the best value-to-uncertainty ratio. The observables are constructed by angular integration of the differential cross-section with smooth weight functions. The value-to-uncertainty ratio is used as a criterion to select the unique weight function leading to the observable with the best statistical power for data analysis. The observables allow to select either vector or axial-vector Z′ couplings to leptons. The obtained observable can be useful in future experiments at lepton colliders such as the ILC.
