Abstract

We present cross sections for production of electroweak vector boson pairs, WW, WZ and ZZ, in pp and pp collisions, at next-to-leading order in α_s. We treat the leptonic decays of the bosons in the narrow-width approximation, but retain all spin information via decay angle correlations. We also include the effects of WWZ and WWγ anomalous couplings.
