At LEP2 many Standard Model predictions are tested up to centre-of-mass energies of 209 GeV. Fermion pair production cross sections and asymmetries agree well with the theoretical expectation over the entire energy range. The measurements…

Supersymmetric (SUSY) explanation of the discrepancy between the measurement of $(g-2)_\mu$ and its SM prediction puts strong upper bounds on the chargino and smuon masses. At the same time, lower experimental limits on the chargino and…
The new CDF II measurement of $W$-boson mass shows a 7$\sigma$ deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction, while the recent FNAL measurement of the muon $g-2$ shows a 4.2$\sigma$ deviation (combined with the BNL result) from the SM.…
About 3 sigma deviation from the standard model prediction of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2) has been reported. We consider new physics beyond the standard model which has new Yukawa interactions with muon. We compute new…
