We prove that the values of the electroweak mixing angle $\sin^2\theta_W$ and intermediate mass scale $M_I$ have vanishing contributions due to one-loop, two-loop and gravitational corrections in Grand Unified Theories which accommodate an…

The higher-order corrections become increasingly important with experiments reaching sub-percent level of uncertainty as they look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Our goal is to address the full set of two-loop electroweak…
We compute the four-loop contribution to the electroweak $\rho$ parameter induced by the singlet diagrams of the $Z$-boson self-energy. The numerical impact on the weak mixing angle and the $W$-boson mass is small.
We study vertex corrections to the leptonic electroweak observables in the general MSSM at tan(beta) < 35. In particular, we address the question of whether supersymmetry can be responsible for the observed 2 sigma deviation from the…
