Precise predictions for e+e- --> 4f(+gamma) with anomalous couplings

Abstract

The relevance of radiative corrections to 4f production at LEP2 and future e+e- colliders is emphasized, and their treatment in the event generator RacoonWW is briefly discussed. In particular, the non-universal corrections are compared with the signature of anomalous triple gauge-boson couplings. For 4f+gamma production the influence of anomalous quartic gauge-boson couplings on photon-energy distributions is illustrated.
