We compare our results with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD, which predicts an angular distribution of 1 +/- alpha1 cos theta* +alpha_2 cos^2 theta*, where theta* is the angle between the charged lepton and the antiproton in the Collins-Soper frame. In the presence of QCD corrections, the parameters alpha1 and alpha2 become functions of pT(W), the W boson transverse momentum. We present the first measurement of alpha_2 as a function of pT(W). This measurement is of importance, because it provides a test of next-to-leading order QCD corrections which are a non-negligible contribution to the W mass measurement.Contributed paper to EPS99 and Lepton-Photon99, 15 pagesHigh Energy Physics - Experimenttext
