Non-trivial Test of Electroweak Quantum Effects

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v2

Abstract

Based on recent WW-mass measurements, the electroweak theory is tested at non-trivial quantum correction level, i.e., beyond the Born approximation with α(MZ)\alpha(M_Z) instead of α\alpha. We can conclude that some non-Born type corrections must exist at more than 92 % confidence level, and the non-decoupling top-quark corrections are required at 97 % confidence level.
