Charge asymmetries in [formula omitted] with polarized photons

It is shown that the difference in the distributions of positive ( μ +) and negative charged leptons ( μ −1) in reactions γγ → μ +μ −1 + ν ν and γγ → W ±μ ∓ + ν( ν) at √s > 200 GeV leads to observable charge asymmetry of muons which is sensitive to New Physics effects.
