Abstract

This report consists of three parts. In Chapter 1 we present a brief description of the LEPTOP approach for the calculation of the radiative corrections in the Minimal Standard Model. The approach is based on the one-loop approximation with respect to the genuinely electroweak interaction for which simple explicit analytical formulae are valid. Starting from Gμ,mZG_{\mu}, m_Z and αˉα(mZ2)\bar{\alpha}\equiv \alpha(m^2_Z) as the main input parameters, we consider all observables of the ZZ boson decays and the mass of the WW boson on the same footing. The dressing with gluonic corrections is performed by using the results of calculations published by other authors. In Chapter 2 theoretical uncertainties inherent to our approach and hence to the LEPTOP computer program are analyzed. In Chapter 3 we describe the Fortran code of LEPTOP. This code can be obtained on request from [email protected]. This document can be accessed on http://cppm.in2p3.fr/leptop/intro_leptop.html by WWW users.
