CHARGE ASYMMETRY IN ${{\mathit e}^{+}}$ ${{\mathit e}^{-}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit q}}{{\overline{\mathit q}}}$

INSPIRE   PDGID:
S044Z0Q
Summed over five lighter flavors.

Experimental and Standard Model values are somewhat event-selection dependent. Standard Model expectations contain some assumptions on ${{\mathit B}^{0}}-{{\overline{\mathit B}}^{0}}$ mixing and on other electroweak parameters.

1  ABREU 1992I has $0.14$ systematic error due to uncertainty of quark fragmentation.
2  ACTON 1992L use the weight function method on 259k selected ${{\mathit Z}}$ $\rightarrow$ hadrons events. The systematic error includes a contribution of $0.2$ due to ${{\mathit B}^{0}}-{{\overline{\mathit B}}^{0}}$ mixing effect, $0.4$ due to Monte Carlo (MC) fragmentation uncertainties and $0.3$ due to MC statistics. ACTON 1992L derive a value of sin$^2\theta {}^{{\mathrm {eff}}}_{{{\mathit W}}}$ to be $0.2321$ $\pm0.0017$ $\pm0.0028$.
