abstract
Drell-Yan lepton pairs are produced in the process ppe +e-+X through an intermediate */Z boson. The lepton angular distributions are used to provide information on the electroweak-mixing parameter sin2w via its observable effective-leptonic sin2w, or sin2efflept. A new method to infer sin 2w or, equivalently, the W-boson mass MW in the on-shell scheme, is developed and tested using a previous CDF Run II measurement of angular distributions from electron pairs in a sample corresponding to 2.1 fb-1 of integrated luminosity from pp collisions at a center-of-momentum energy of 1.96 TeV. The value of sin2efflept is found to be 0.23280.0011. Within a specified context of the standard model, this results in sin 2w=0.22460.0011, which corresponds to a W-boson mass of 80.2970.055 GeV/c2, in agreement with previous determinations in electron-position collisions and at the Tevatron collider. 2013 American Physical Society.
