    We present limits on anomalous WWZ and WW-gamma couplings from a search for WW and WZ production in p-bar p collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV. We use p-bar p -> e-nu jjX events recorded with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider during the 1992-1995 run. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 96.0+-5.1 pb^(-1). Assuming identical WWZ and WW-gamma coupling parameters, the 95% CL limits on the CP-conserving couplings are -0.33<lambda<0.36 (Delta-kappa=0) and -0.43<Delta-kappa<0.59 (lambda=0), for a form factor scale Lambda = 2.0 TeV. Limits based on other assumptions are also presented.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, 2 table

    We have measured the WWγWW\gamma gauge boson coupling parameters using ppˉνγ+Xp\bar{p}\to \ell\nu\gamma+X (=e,μ\ell=e,\mu) events at s=1.8\sqrt{s}=1.8 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 89.1 pb^{-1}, were collected using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measured cross section times branching ratio for ppˉWγ+Xp\bar{p} \to W\gamma+X with pTγp_T^\gamma > 10 GeV/c and Rγ>0.7R_{\ell\gamma} > 0.7 is 11.81.6+1.7±2.0{11.8}^{+1.7}_{-1.6} \pm 2.0 pb, in agreement with the Standard Model prediction. The one degree of freedom 95% confidence level limits on individual CP-conserving parameters are 0.98<Δκ<1.01-0.98<\Delta\kappa<1.01 and 0.33<λ<0.31-0.33<\lambda<0.31. Similar limits are set on the CP}violating coupling parameters.Comment: 10 pages, including two figures. Paper submitted to Phys. Rev. Let
