[output1_title]: Determination of the LEP Beam Energy using Radiative Fermion-pair Events
[output1_authors]: OPAL Collaboration
[output1_ref]: Phys. Lett. B 604, 31 (2004)
[output1_url]: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2004.10.046
[output1_comments]: A PhD student that I supervised, Georgios Anagnostou, performed the extraction of muon and tau pair data at these LEP energies. I was also responsible with a small number of Birmingham colleagues and PhD students for the performance of the muon endcap detector used extensively in this analysis.

[output2_url]: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2003.10.063
[output2_comments]: I was a member of the editorial board (four people) who together with the principal authors produced the publication. I was also responsible with a small number of Birmingham colleagues and PhD students for the performance of the muon endcap detector which was an important detector in this analysis.
