Precision Electroweak Measurements

چکیده
Recent electroweak precision measurements from ee and pp colliders are presented. Some emphasis is placed on the recent developments in the heavy flavor sector. The measurements are compared to predictions from the Standard Model of electroweak interactions. All results are found to be consistent with the Standard Model. The indirect constraint on the top quark mass from all measurements is in excellent agreement with the direct mt measurements. Using the world’s electroweak data in conjunction with the current measurement of the top quark mass, the constraints on the Higgs mass are discussed. Invited talk given at the Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields, Minneapolis, August 10 – 15, 1996. Precision Electroweak Measurements

Electroweak Precision Tests at GigaZ
By running the prospective high-energy ee collider TESLA in the GigaZ mode on the Z resonance, experiments can be performed on the basis of more than 10 Z events. This will allow the measurement of the effective electroweak mixing angle to an accuracy of δ sin θeff ≈ ±1×10. The W boson mass is likewise expected to be measurable with an error of δMW ≈ ±6 MeV near the WW threshold. We review the ...

Progress in precisionmeasurements of electroweak observables at LEP continues steadily. The highlights of 1993 are: a new scan of the Z line shape with precise beam energy determination by resonant depolarization, leading to a measurement of the Z width with 1:5 10 3 precision; rst results on absolute cross sections with high-precision luminosity monitors; high e ciency b-tagging with microvert...
