Search for anomalous ZZ{gamma} and Z{gamma}{gamma} couplings with D0
A direct test of the Standard Model by searching for anomalous ZZ{gamma} and Z{gamma}{gamma} couplings is presented. The authors analyze p{bar p} {yields} ll{gamma} + X, (l = e,{mu}) events at {radical}s = 1.8 TeV with the D0d detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. A fit to the transverse energy spectrum of the photon in the signal events, based on the data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 13.9 pb{sup {minus}1} (13.3 pb{sup {minus}1}) for the electron (muon) channel, yields the following 95% CL limits on the anomalous CP-conserving ZZ{gamma} couplings: -1.9 < h{sub 30}{sup Z} < 1.8 (h{sub 40}{sup Z} = 0), and -0.5 < h{sub 40}{sup Z} < 0.5 ({sub 30}{sup Z} = 0), for a form-factor scale {Lambda} = 500 GeV. Limits on the Z{gamma}{gamma} couplings and CP-violating couplings are also discussed.
