The principle of maximum conformality (PMC) is used to remove uncertainties in the renormalization scale and scheme, thus eliminating unnecessary systematic errors for high-precision perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (pQCD) predictions.…
It is expected that hadron collider measurements of the Higgs boson mass using the decay h -> W^+W^-, followed by the leptonic decay of each W-boson, will be performed by fitting the shape of a distribution which is sensitive to the Higgs…
We propose a search strategy at the HL-LHC for a new neutral particle $X$ that couples to $W$-bosons, using the process $p p \rightarrow W^{\pm} X (\rightarrow W^{+} W^{-})$ with a tri-$W$-boson final state. Focusing on events with two…
The mass and the total decay width of the W boson are measured with the L3 detector at the LEP e+e- collider using W-boson pairs produced in 0.7/fb of data collected at centre-of-mass energies between 161 and 209GeV. Combining semi-leptonic…
LHCb provides unique opportunities to study $W$ and $Z$ boson production at forward rapidities at the LHC. It has recently been suggested that a measurement of the $W$ boson mass by LHCb would complement measurements by ATLAS and CMS. All…
We study the implications of the recent anomalies in the $W$-boson mass and the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon on $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ model. We show that the introduction of vector-like leptons which mix with muon can solve both…
We show that the $m_W$ measurement is a direct probe of New Physics (NP) contributing to lepton and missing transverse momentum ($\ell+MET$), independently from indirect tests via the electroweak fit. Such NP modifies the kinematic…
Precise measurements of the mass of the $W$ boson are important to test the overall consistency of the Standard Model of particle physics. The current best measurements of the $W$ boson mass come from single production measurements at…
We provide a comparative study of the Higgs boson mass measurements based on two approaches to the dileptonic decay of W bosons produced by the Higgs boson decay, one using the kinematic variable M_T^true and the other using the…
The presently most accurate prediction for the W-boson mass in the Standard Model is obtained by combining the complete two-loop result with the known higher-order QCD and electroweak corrections. The numerical impact of the different…

In this paper, we consider phenomenology of a model with an $L_\mu-L_\tau$ gauge symmetry. Since the muon couples to the $L_\mu-L_\tau$ gauge boson (called $Z''$ boson), its contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2) can…

Following a discussion on $W$-boson mass observed at the CDF and ATLAS, we explore the parameter space allowed in the 2HDM+$S$ model. Further, the model parameter space is constrained through vector-like leptons via muon $g-2$ measurements.…
The claim that the W boson mass might be measured at the LHC with a precision of O(10 MeV) is critically reviewed. It is argued that such a precision cannot be achieved, unless a dedicated measurement program, specific to the LHC is…
