Abstract

A detailed analysis of $W γ$ production and radiative $W$ decays at the Fermilab Tevatron is presented for general $WW γ$ couplings. Possibilities to test the gauge structure of the $WW γ$ vertex are explored. At the Tevatron, for an integrated luminosity of 100 ${pb}^{- 1}$ , the $WW γ$ vertex can be measured with 25-40% accuracy in $W γ$ production. The limits which can be obtained from radiative $W$ decays are found to be significantly weaker.
