Abstract [en]

We present the first observation of the Zγ→νν̅ γ process at the Fermilab Tevatron at 5.1 standard deviations significance, based on 3.6  fb-1 of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̅ Collider at √s=1.96  TeV. The measured Zγ production cross section multiplied by the branching fraction of Z→νν̅ is 32±9(stat+syst)±2(lumi)  fb for the photon ET>90  GeV. It is in agreement with the standard model prediction of 39±4  fb. We set limits on anomalous trilinear Zγγ and ZZγ gauge boson couplings, most of which are the most restrictive to date.
