Abstract

We investigate the uncertainties for current and future measurements of electroweak (EW) parameters at hadron colliders. These include the measurement of the mass of the top quark (MTM_T), the direct measurement of the mass of the W boson (MWdirectM_W^{direct}), the measurement of the effective EW mixing angle sin2θefflept\sin^2\theta^{\rm lept}_{\rm eff}(MZ_Z), and the measurement of the on-shell EW mixing angle sin2θW=1MW2/MZ2\sin^2\theta_{W}= 1- M_W^2/M_Z^2 which is equivalent to an indirect measurement of the W mass (MWindirectM_W^{indirect}). Reduction of a factor of 2 to 3 in the measurement errors is expected in the future.
