James B. Duke Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Physics
Professor Goshaw current research is focused on the study of Nature's most massive
particles, the W and Z bosons (carriers of the weak force) and the top quark (discovered
in 1994). These studies have been carried out using 1.96 TeV proton-antiproton collisions
provided by Fermilab's Tevatron, and analyzed using the CDF detector. Current studies
concentrate on measurements of the tri-linear coupling among the photon, W boson and
Z boson, as tests of the non-abelian character of the electroweak f
