abstract = {The combination of measurements of the W boson polarization
in top quark decays performed by the ATLAS and CMS
Collaborations is presented. The measurements are based on
proton-proton collision data produced at the LHC at a
centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, and corresponding to an
integrated luminosity of about 20 fb$^{-1}$ for each
experiment. The measurements used events containing one
lepton and having different jet multiplicities in the final
state. The results are quoted as fractions of W bosons with
longitudinal ($F_0$), left-handed ($F_\mathrm{L}$), or
right-handed ($F_\mathrm{R}$) polarizations. The resulting
combined measurements of the polarization fractions are $F_0
=$ 0.693 $\pm$ 0.014 and $F_\mathrm{L} =$ 0.315 $\pm$ 0.011.
The fraction $F_\mathrm{R}$ is calculated from the unitarity
constraint to be $F_\mathrm{R} = -$0.008 $\pm$ 0.007. These
results are in agreement with the standard model predictions
at next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum
chromodynamics and represent an improvement in precision of
25 (29)\% for $F_0$ ($F_\mathrm{L}$) with respect to the
most precise single measurement. A limit on anomalous
right-handed vector ($V_{\text{R}}$), and left- and
right-handed tensor ($g_{\text{L}},g_{\text{R}}$) tWb
couplings is set while fixing all others to their standard
model values. The allowed regions are [$-$0.11, 0.16] for
$V_{\text{R}}$, [$-$0.08, 0.05] for $g_{\text{L}}$, and
[$-$0.04, 0.02] for $g_{\text{R}}$, at 95\% confidence
level. Limits on the corresponding Wilson coefficients are
also derived.},
