Measurements of the trilinear gauge boson couplings WWgamma and WWZ are presented using the data taken by DELPHI in 1998 at a centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV and combined with DELPHI data at 183 GeV. Values are determined for Delta(g_1^Z) and Delta(kappa_gamma), the differences of the WWZ charge coupling and of the WWgamma dipole coupling from their Standard Model values, and for lambda_gamma, the WWgamma quadrupole coupling. A measurement of the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moment of the W is extracted from the results for Delta(kappa_gamma) and lambda_gamma. The study uses data from the final states jjlv, jjjj, lX, jjX and gammaX, where j represents a quark jet, l an identified lepton and X missing four-momentum. The observations are consistent with the predictions of the Standard Model.

The cross-section for the process e + e − → W + W − has been measured with the data sample collected by DELPHI at an average centre-of-mass energy of 182.65 GeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 53 pb −1 . Based on the 770 events selected as WW candidates, the cross-section for the doubly resonant process σ(e + e − →W + W − )=15.86 ±0.69 (stat) ±0.26 (syst) pb has been measured and found to be in good agreement with the Standard Model expectation. The branching fractions of the W decay were also measured. From these a value of the CKM mixing matrix element |V cs |=0.985±0.073 (stat) ±0.025 (syst) was derived. Our previously published WW cross-section measurements and the derived measurement of m W have been revised and updated with the present cross-section measurement to yield m W =80.49±0.43 (stat) ±0.09( syst )±0.03( LEP ) GeV /c 2 .
