Abstract

We investigate decay properties of the intermediate vector bosons W^± and Z⁰. QED and QCD radiative corrections to leptonic and hadronic decay modes are calculated. Implications of the results for decay widths, branching ratios, determination of the number of neutrino species, e-μ-τ universality and properties of hadronic jets produced in W^± and Z⁰ decays are examined. © 1980.
