A method is proposed to calculate the confidence level for agreement of data with the Standard Model (SM) by combining information from direct and indirect Higgs Boson searches. Good agreement with the SM is found for $m_H \simeq 120$ GeV…
In the LHC era, it is crucial to gain a good understanding of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model (SM). Determining the cross-sections of electroweak processes is therefore of great importance, both as prerequisites to Higgs-Boson…

In a model independent framework, the effects of new physics at the electroweak scale can be parametrized in terms of an effective Lagrangian expansion. Assuming the $SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y$ gauge symmetry is linearly realized, the expansion at…
