Electroweak Theory
Abstract
In these lectures we give a discussion of the structure of the electroweak standard model and its quantum corrections for tests of the electroweak theory. The predictions for the vector boson masses, neutrino scattering cross sections and the resonance observables are presented in some detail. We show comparisons with the recent experimental data and their implications for the present status of the Standard Model. Finally we address the question how virtual New Physics can influence the predictions for the precision observables and discuss the minimal supersymmetric standard model as a special example of particular theoretical interest.
