We report a selection of the most recent CDF and D0 results on top quark and W and Z boson properties, based on Tevatron Run 2 data. The large datasets of W and Z bosons allow a very precise measurement of the W mass and detailed studies of…
The Large Electron Positron Collider (LEP) established the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics with unprecedented precision, including all its radiative corrections. These led to predictions for the masses of the top quark and Higgs…
Assuming that a Higgs sector is responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking, we attempt to address two important questions: How much better precision are various measurements of Higgs boson properties at a future linear collider than at…
Most recent results of $W$ boson mass measurements from Tevatron experiments (CDF and D0) in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ GeV are reported, using $0.2 fb^{-1}$ and $1.0 fb^{-1}$ data collected at CDF and D0, respectively. The…

Measurements of b and c quark asymmetries using data collected at LEP 1 are described. The relative merits of each of the individual techniques used is emphasised as is the most profitable way of combining them. Effects of radiative…

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 present the implications of the recent measurement of $W$ boson at CDF II on the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM). In the analysis, we impose theoretical bounds such as vacuum stability and perturbative unitarity, and several experimental…

We investigate the determination of Higgs boson couplings to gauge bosons and fermions at the LHC from data on Higgs boson production and decay. We demonstrate that very mild theoretical assumptions, which are valid in general multi-Higgs…
After the discovery of a Higgs boson, the next step is to measure its properties and test their accordance with the predictions of the Standard Model, in particular the couplings of the Higgs boson. In this talk we discuss what information…

Precise measurement of the Higgs boson properties is an important issue of the International Linear Collider (ILC) experiment to verify the particles mass generation mechanism that the coupling strength between the Higgs boson and the…
We propose a solution to the recent $W$ mass measurement by embedding the Standard Model within $E_6$ models. The presence of a new $U(1)$ group shifts the $W$ boson mass at the tree level and introduces a new gauge boson $Z^{\prime}$ which…

The fit of precision electroweak data to the Minimal Standard Model currently gives an upper limit on the Higgs boson mass of 170 GeV at 95% confidence. Nevertheless, it is often said that the Higgs boson could be much heavier in more…
This paper is the second of the series of papers proposing dedicated strategies for precision measurements of the Standard Model parameters at the LHC. The common feature of these strategies is their robustness with respect to the…
