Abstract
We discuss the production of pairs of weak bosons in those processes where electrons or quarks annihilate. Besides comparing and extending previous calculations for , we consider and . It is emphasized that (1) the rate of production of pairs is comparable to that of pairs and that (2) -pair production with colliding proton beams may be the best way to see high-energy cancellations in cross sections, the hallmark of renormalizability in gauge theories.
