Search for Resonant WW and WZ Production in p(p)over-bar Collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV

Abstract

We search for resonant WW or WZ production by using up to 5.4 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 experiment in run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The data are consistent with the standard model background expectation, and we set limits on a resonance mass by using the sequential standard model W'' boson and the Randall-Sundrum model graviton G as benchmarks.

We exclude a sequential standard model W'' boson in the mass range 180-690 GeV and a Randall-Sundrum graviton in the range 300-754 GeV at 95% C. L.
