%0 Journal Article %T On Manin's conjecture for a family of Chatelet surfaces %A R. de la Bret¨¨che %A T. D. Browning %A E. Peyre %J Mathematics %D 2010 %I arXiv %X The Manin conjecture is established for Ch\^atelet surfaces over Q arising as minimal proper smooth models of the surface Y^2+Z^2=f(X) where f is a totally reducible polynomial of degree 3 without repeated roots. These surfaces do not satisfy weak approximation. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1002.0255v1
