Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors present a measurement of the $ar{p}$p → W? + X → ev? + X production cross section using data form the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The p$ar{p}$ collisions were provided by the Tevatron Collider at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV. Electroweak theory includes the trilinear vector boson coupling, WW?, which contributes to the ev? final state. The electron decay channel of the W provides a clean sample to study the production of diboson pairs. The measurement of the production cross section tests the structure of the non-Abelian character of Electroweak theory.
