Abstract
In the last decades electroweak processes were studied at hadron and lepton colliders. By exploiting the large statistics and the c.o.m. energy available, hadron colliders played a significant role in performing precision measurements of standard model parameters and in observing rare processes. Besides, in the last decade of the XX century, the last fermion predicted -the top quark- was discovered at the Tevatron collider. We are now at the start of a new hadron collider, the LHC, and in this paper, I will review recent results from the Tevatron and compare perspectives for experiment taking data at the two accelerators
