We give a detailed description of the measurement of the $W$ boson mass, $M_W$, performed on an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb$^{-1}$, which is based on similar techniques as used for our previous measurement done on an independent data…
The status of the electroweak precision data as of winter 2003 and the corresponding theoretical calculations are presented. The possible problems within the data and the calculations are discussed in a critical way. If the NuTeV anomaly…
We have examined the evidence for the electroweak radiative corrections in the LEP precision data sets of 1993 and 1994 along with the intriguing possibility that the QED corrections only may be sufficient to fit the data within the…
We analyze various models with an extra U(1) gauge symmetry in addition to the Standard Model (SM) gauge group at low energies, and impose limits on the mass of the neutral Z' boson, M_Z', predicted in all such models, and on the Z-Z'…
We revisit a model of electroweak baryogenesis that includes a dark matter candidate, and sequesters the new CP violation required to produce the baryon asymmetry in a dark sector. The model can explain the baryon asymmetry, dark matter…
We argue that the Standard Model is accompanied by a new pseudo-scalar degree of freedom, $\eta_{\rm w}$-meson, which cancels the topological susceptibility of the electroweak vacuum and gets its mass from this effect. The prediction is…

In the standard model of particle physics, the masses of the W and Z bosons, the carriers of the weak interaction, are uniquely related. A precise determination of their masses is important because quantum loops of heavy, undiscovered…
Electroweak precision observables allow stringent tests of the Standard Model at the quantum level and imply interesting bounds on the mass of the Higgs boson through higher-order loop effects. Very significant constraints come especially…
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 view of the recent high precision measurement of the Standard Model $W$ boson mass at the CDF II detector, we compute the contributions to the oblique parameters $S$, $T$ and $U$ coming from the two additional Higgs doublets (one inert…
This note presents constraints on Standard Model parameters using published and preliminary precision electroweak results measured at the electron-positron colliders LEP and SLC. The results are compared with precise electroweak…
A recent result from Fermilab suggests that the measured W-boson mass deviates from the prediction of the Standard Model (SM) with a significance of $>7\sigma$, and there may exist new physics beyond the SM. It is proposed that the inert…
We revisit the Simple Extension of the Standard Model (SESM), which can account for various tentative new physics anomalies and dark matter. The B physics anomalies, muon anomalous magnetic moment, and dark matter can be explained already…
We study the CDF $W$-mass, muon $g-2$, and dark matter observables in a local $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ model in which the new particles include three vector-like leptons ($E_1,~ E_2,~ N$), a new gauge boson $Z'$, a scalar $S$ (breaking…
We present the constraints on the parameter space of the Lee-Wick Standard Model coming from electroweak precision observables. The model predicts a large positive S and a negative T. We show that it is possible to find some regions in…

We investigate the hypothesis that Coulomb-type interactions between dark matter (DM) and baryons explain the anomalously low 21cm brightness-temperature minimum at redshift z ~ 17 that was recently measured by the EDGES experiment. In…
Electroweak precision data have been extensively used to constrain models containing physics beyond that of the Standard Model. When the model contains Higgs scalars in representations other than singlets or doublets, and hence rho not…
