Testing Left-Right Symmetric Gauge Theories at e^+e^- Colliders

Abstract

If the Standard Model is embedded in a left-right symmetric gauge theory at the TeV scale, the pair production of light W-bosons in e^+e^- collisions, e^+e^- -> W^+W^-, will be affected by mixings in the gauge and neutrino sectors, and by the t-channel exchange of a heavy right-handed neutrino. The modification of the cross section by these new effects is studied for high--energy e^+e^- colliders.
