Triple Electroweak Gauge-Boson Production at Fermilab Tevatron Energies
We calculate the three gauge-boson production in the Standard Model at
Fermilab Tevatron energies. At TeV in collisions, the
cross sections for the triple gauge-boson production are typically of order 10
femtobarns (fb). For the pure leptonic final states from the gauge-boson decays
and with some minimal cuts on final state photons, the cross sections for and
processes are of order a few fb, resulting in a few dozen clean leptonic events
for an integrated luminosity of 10 fb. The pure leptonic modes from
other gauge-boson channels give significantly smaller rate. Especially, the
trilepton modes from and
yield a cross section of order 0.1 fb if there is no significant Higgs boson
contribution. For a Higgs boson with , the triple
massive-gauge-boson production rate could be enhanced by a factor of .Comment: RevTeX 3.0; 14 pages plus 7 figures; ps files available via anonymous
