Paver %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0370-2693(98)00291-3 %X In the case of the process $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-$, we study the sensitivity to either $Z^\prime$ or anomalous gauge coupling effects of two new observables, $\sigma_+$ and $\sigma_-$, conveniently defined for such kind of analysis. We discuss general properties of the deviations of these observables from the Standard Model predictions, and derive the model-independent bounds on the relevant parameters allowed by present and foreseeable LEP2 data. We also discuss the possibility of separating the two kinds of effect. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9804232v1
