Scientific paper

W+ and W- bosons are produced with a momentum distribution asymmetric in pseudorapidity at the Tevatron collider. Since this asymmetry is sensitive to the ratio of u and d quark distributions in the proton, the resultant lepton asymmetry provides constraints on leading parton distribution function calculations. We describe the analysis and expected uncertainties for the data to be collected at D0 by Fall 2002. Also, we will present the first results on W and Z bosons using the upgraded detector in the electron channels.
