A future $e^+e^-$ collider could run at the Z-pole to perform important electroweak (EW) precision measurements, while such a run may not be viable for a future muon collider. This however can be compensated by the measurements of other EW…

The CDF, ATLAS and LHCb have released the measurements on the W boson mass $m_W$ at $\sqrt{S}=1.96, 7, 13 TeV$, respectively. The measured values show the declining tendency, namely $m_W$ decreases with the increment of the collider energy.…

Measurements of the $W$ boson mass are planned by the ATLAS and CMS experiments, but for the time being, these may be unable to compete with the current world average precision of 15~MeV, due to uncertainties in the PDFs. We discuss the…

The new measurement of the $W$-boson mass from the CDF collaboration shows a significant tension with the Standard Model prediction. We quantify this discrepancy within a state-of-the-art analysis of electroweak precision data and…
