We report a measurement of the electroweak parameters sin2θw and ϱ based on the ratios of neutral current to charged current events measured in the Fermilab narrow-band neutrino beam at energies of 30–240 GeV. The data are fully corrected for radiative effects, heavy-quark production, and other effects. The best value for sin2θw obtained, sin2θw=0.239±0.011, is consistent with the most recent values fromW andZ production, as well as from other neutrino experiments.

The final results from the WA 1/2 neutrino experiment in the 1984 CERN 160 GeV narrow band beam are presented. The ratiosRν and\(R_{\bar v} \) of neutral to charged current interaction rates of neutrinos and antineutrinos in iron are measured to beRν=0.3072±0.0033 and\(R_{\bar v} \)=0.382±0.016. A value of the electroweak parameter sin2 θw = 1 −mW2/mZ2 is extracted fromRν. The result is sin2 θw =0.228+0.013(mc−1.5)±0.0003 (theor.) wheremc is the mass of the charmed quark in GeV formt=60 GeV,MH=100 GeV, ρ=1. CombiningRν and\(R_{\bar v} \) one obtains a value for ρ=0.991+0.023(mc−1.5)±0.020(exp.). Alternatively,Rν and\(R_{\bar v} \) yield a precise value of the ratio of intermediate vector boson massesmW/mZ=0.880−0.007(mc−1.5)±0.002(exp.)±0.002(theor.). Comparison of these results with those from direct measurements of the vector boson masses are presented. In a model-independent analysis the left- and right-handed neutral current coupling constants,gL2 andgR2, are determined.

Distributions of the Bjorken scaling variables x and y, and the structure function F+(x), are presented both for neutral-current and for charged-current νμ interactions. The data were obtained by use of the Fermilab 15-ft neon bubble chamber exposed to a narrow-band νμ beam. Results are based on 151 neutral-current and 683 charged-current events. An important feature of the neutral-current analysis is the event-by-event reconstruction of the outgoing neutrino.
