We explore the ability of the Large Hadron Collider to measure the mass of the W boson. We believe that a precision better than ~ 15 MeV could be attained, based on a year of operation at low luminosity (10^(33)cm^(-2)s^(-1)). If this is…

I present a measurement of the W boson mass (M_W) and width (G_W) using 200 and 350 pb-1 of CDF Run II data respectively. The measurements, performed in both the electron and muon decay channels, rely on a fit to the W transverse mass…

In top-bottom seesaw and topflavor model, there may exist extra Higgses and vectorlike fermions, and we have examined the W mass anomaly reported by CDF II in these frames. We found that the CDF II W-boson mass data constrains the parameter…
