Results from 161+172 GeV



Cross-sections and Asymmetries


Hadronic and Leptonic cross-sections vs energy (preliminary) :

Cross-section


Variation of the cross-sections for hadrons, electrons, muons and taus as function of the energy. The data correspond to DELPHI measurements at the Z0 peak, at 130-136 GeV (1995) and at 161 and 172 GeV (1996).


Forward-backward Asymmetries vs energy (preliminary) :

Leptonic AFB


Variation of the forward-backward asymmetries for electrons, muons and taus as function of the energy. The data correspond to DELPHI measurements at the Z0 peak, at 130-136 GeV (1995) and at 161 and 172 GeV (1996).


Comparison of Hadronic and Leptonic cross sections with ZFITTER predictions (preliminary) :

172 GeV


Relative deviation between the measurements and the ZFITTER 5.0 prediction from the runs at 130-136 GeV (1995) and at 161 and 172 GeV (1996).

s' Distributions


s' Distributions for Hadrons and for Leptons (preliminary) :

Hadrons, 172 GeV Leptons, 172 GeV


Ratio sqrt(s')/sqrt(s) for events (dots) and the expectation (histogram) for hadrons, muons and taus at 172 GeV. Backgrounds are displayed in a different colour in the histograms.


Contact Interactions


(preliminary) :

172 GeV
