title = "Measurement of muon-pair production at 50 GeV < √s < 86 GeV at LEP",
abstract = "Using the data recorded with the L3 detector at LEP, we study the process e+e- → μ+μ-(γ) for events with hard initial-state photon radiation. The effective centre-of-mass energies of the muons range from 50 GeV to 86 GeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 103.5 pb-1 and yields 293 muon-pair events with a hard photon along the beam direction. The events are used to determine the cross sections and the forward-backward charge asymmetries at centre-of-mass energies below the Z resonance.",
