et al.

We measure the mass dependence of the forward-backward charge asymmetry in 157,553 pp = Z/γ* = e⁺e^- interactions, corresponding to 5.0 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at √s = 1.96 TeV. The effective weak mixing angle (θ^ℓ_eff) from this process involving predominantly the first generation of quarks is extracted as sin² θ^ℓ_eff = 0.2309 ± 0.0008 (stat.) ± 0.0006 (syst.). We also present the most precise direct measurement of the vector and axial-vector couplings of u and d quarks to the Z boson.
