Updated SM calculations of σW/σZ at the Tevatron and the W boson width
نویسنده
چکیده
The central value and theoretical uncertainties on the cross section ratio σW /σZ at the Tevatron are evaluated using the NNLO calculations and the latest MSTW PDFs. The partial width, total width and branching ratios of the W boson in the Standard Model, in the light of the latest electroweak calculations, are also updated.

Electroweak Radiative Corrections to Weak Boson Production at Hadron Colliders
We summarize the status of calculations of the electroweak radiative corrections to W and Z boson production via the Drell-Yan mechanism at hadron colliders. To fully exploit the precision physics potential of the highluminosity environment of the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄ (Run II) and the CERN LHC pp colliders, it is crucial that the theoretical predictions are well under control. The envisioned pr...
متن کاملSearches for Non-sm Higgs at the Tevatron
Tevatron is currently the only place where we can search for not only the standard model (SM) Higgs boson but also non-SM Higgs bosons. CDF and DØ have started searching for the exotic Higgs bosons including supersymmetric Higgs bosons and doubly charged Higgs bosons. DØ recently updated the results of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) Higgs boson search using hbb̄ → bb̄bb̄ final st...
متن کاملSearches for a High Mass Higgs Boson at the Tevatron
Recent results obtained by the CDF and DØ collaborations are presented here. These Tevatron Higgs searches look for a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson decaying into W-boson pairs, with the W-bosons decaying into electron-neutrino or muon neutrino final states. In the mass range of 135 GeV/c to 200 GeV/c, the SM Higgs decays prominently into W-boson pairs. The presented results are based on an in...

The existence of a new massive charged gauge boson, known as W’, is proposed by many new physics scenarios. When W’ decays to tb, the final state is very similar to the final state of the s-channel single top production, where W boson is the off-shell mediator to produce the top and bottom quarks. If W’ exists, it can affect the cross section of the SM s-channel single top production, so measur...

We study the observability for a Higgs boson at upgraded Tevatron via the modes gg → h → ZZ → 4l (l = e, μ). We find that the signal can be observed at an integrated luminosity of 30 fb if the fourth SM family exists. In the Standard Model (SM) one doublet of scalar fields is assumed, leading to the existence of one neutral scalar particle h. The requirements of the stability of the electroweak...
