摘要
WW scattering is a general probe of the strength of the still unknown fifth force that breaks the electroweak symmetry. For the design energy and luminosity of the SSC we find that strong WW scattering signals in the like-charge W+W+ + W-W- channel exceed the irreducible background by many standard deviations. An important feature of the analysis is the use of leptonic observables that distinguish between the longitudinal polarization of the signal and the predominantly transverse polarization of the background.
