Summary of the Electroweak and Beyond the Standard Model Working Group
نویسندگان
چکیده
The production and study of particles through deep inelastic scattering is one of the main tools in high energy physics and has led to a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental particles and interactions up to the electroweak energy scale. Successful running of the HERA ep collider, √ s = 319 GeV, has recently come to an end, and selected results are already available from the complete 1 fb data set. The Tevatron continues to collide protons and antiprotons at √ s = 1.96 TeV, with new analyses based on up to 3 fb of data. Later this year the LHC will ramp up proton beams to √ s = 10 TeV, to be followed next year by √ s = 14 TeV pp collisions. In addition, data from the completed NuTeV fixed– target incident–neutrino experiment have been further analysed to test several hypotheses for the source of the long–standing sin θW discrepancy.

Electroweak interactions: a theoretical overview
1 This talk summarizes topical theoretical work for tests of the electroweak standard model and of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). The status of the standard model and the MSSM is discussed in view of recent precision data. A brief theoretical summary of the Working Group on Elec-troweak Interactions is included.
متن کاملStrongly Coupled Electroweak Symmetry Breaking: Implications of Models
We discuss the phenomenology of models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking which attempt to generate the observed fermion mass spectrum. After briefly describing the variety of and constraints on proposed models, we concentrate on the signatures of colored pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons and resonances at existing and proposed colliders. These particles provide a possibly unique signature:...
متن کاملSummary of the Electroweak and Beyond the Standard Model Working Group
For more than a century, high energy collisions of particles have been the golden method of investigating the ultimate structure of matter. Along with precision studies of heavy meson decays, primarily at lower energy colliders, these experiments have led to consolidation of the Standard Model (SM) as the theory of particle physics at energy scales up to O(102) GeV. Recent results from high ene...
متن کاملElectroweak Flavor - Conserving Gauge Processes : Virtual Effects ∗
The electroweak Standard Model is summarized at the classical and quantum levels, including its gauge symmetry and symmetry-breaking aspects. The full implications of precise measurements of electroweak gauge forces are presented in terms of electroweak parameters and quantum corrections. The minimal Standard Model (SM) (including the top quark) satisfies the data well, up to oneloop accuracy. ...
متن کاملElectroweak Physics at Hera: Introduction and Summary 1
A high luminosity upgrade of HERA will allow the measurement of standard model parameters and the neutral current couplings of quarks. These results will have to be consistent with other precision measurements or indicate traces of new physics. The analysis of W production will complement future results of LEP 2 and the Tevatron. We summarize the main results and conclusions obtained by the wor...
