Detailed Description

An observable class for the forward-backward asymmetry in \(e^+ e^-\to Z\to e^+ e^-\) at the \(Z\) pole.

Author
HEPfit Collaboration

This class is used to compute the forward-backward asymmetry for an \(e^+ e^-\to Z\to e^+ e^-\) process at the \(Z\) pole in terms of the asymmetry parameters \(\mathcal{A}_f\), computed in the EW class:

\[ A_{\mathrm{FB}}^{0,e}=\frac 34 \mathcal{A}_e \mathcal{A}_e\,. \]

Lepton-flavour universality is not assumed.
