Abstract

The process e⁺e^- → γγ(γ) is studied using data recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP. The data sample corresponds to a total integrated luminosity of 25.38 pb^-1 taken at centre-of-mass energies of 130-172 GeV. The measured cross-sections agree well with the expectation from QED. In a combined fit using data from all centre-of-mass energies, the angular distribution is used to obtain improved limits on the cut-off parameters: A₊ > 195 GeV and A_ > 210 GeV (95% CL). In addition, limits on non-standard e⁺e^-γ couplings and contact interactions, as well as a 95% CL mass limit for an excited electron, M_e* > 194 GeV for an e⁺e^-γ coupling κ = 1, are determined.

N2 - The process e+e- → γγ(γ) is studied using data recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP. The data sample corresponds to a total integrated luminosity of 25.38 pb-1 taken at centre-of-mass energies of 130-172 GeV. The measured cross-sections agree well with the expectation from QED. In a combined fit using data from all centre-of-mass energies, the angular distribution is used to obtain improved limits on the cut-off parameters: A+ > 195 GeV and A_ > 210 GeV (95% CL). In addition, limits on non-standard e+e-γ couplings and contact interactions, as well as a 95% CL mass limit for an excited electron, Me* > 194 GeV for an e+e-γ coupling κ = 1, are determined.
