The NuTeV anomaly of a non-universal value of the fundamental parameter sin^2\theta_W in the electroweak theory has been interpreted as an indication for new physics beyond the Standard Model. However, the observed quantity depends on a…
In this review, we summarize tests of standard electroweak (EW) theory at the highest available energies as a precursor to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) era. Our primary focus is on the published results (as of March 2010) from proton-…
From a distance, the proton's weak charge is seen through the distorting effects of clouds of virtual particles. The effective weak charge can be calculated by starting with the measured weak coupling at the Z-pole and "running" the…
We present a new calculation of the cross sections for charged current (CC) and neutral current (NC) $\nu N$ and $\bar{\nu} N$ interactions in the neutrino energy range $10^{4}<E_{\nu}<10^{12}$ GeV using the most recent MSTW parton…
