The W-boson mass has been measured using the ALEPH detector at LEP. Preliminary results from data taken in 1998 are added to previous measurements to give mW = 80.411 +- 0.064(stat.) +- 0.037(syst.) +- 0.022(BE-CR) +- 0.018(LEP) GeV/c2.
We present a combined measurement of Rb = \Gamma(Z -> bb) / \Gamma(Z ->hadrons) and the semileptonic branching ratio of b quarks in Z decays, BR(b-> l nu X), using double-tag methods. Two analyses are performed on one million hadronic Z…
