We study the effect of the diagonal extended technicolor(ETC) gauge boson on the oblique correction parameters. It is shown that in the $T$ parameter is unacceptably large when the $Zbb$ vertex correction and $S$ parameter are consistent…
Extended technicolor theories generate potentially large corrections to the $\Zbb$ vertex which can be observed in current experiments at LEP.
In a realistic effective one-family extended technicolor(ETC) model without exact custodial symmetry, we calculate the one-loop corrections to the Z-b-(anti-b) and Z-tau-(anti-tau)vertices from the sideways and diagonal ETC bosons exchange.…
In extended technicolor (ETC) theories, while the sideways ETC boson exchange decreases the width $\Gamma_b \equiv \Gamma (Z\rightarrow b \bar{b})$, the flavor-diagonal ETC boson exchange tends to increase it, and the ETC-corrected $R_b…

A slowly running technicolor coupling will affect the size of non-oblique corrections to the $Zb\bar b$ vertex from extended technicolor dynamics. We show that while ``walking technicolor'' reduces the magnitude of the corrections, they…
We estimate the correction to the Zbb-bar vertex arising from the exchanges of the sideways extended technicolor (ETC) boson and the flavor-diagonal ETC boson in the multiscale walking technicolor model. The obtained result is too large to…

We explore corrections to electroweak parameters in the context of Extended Technicolor (ETC) models in which the ETC gauge-boson which generates the top-quark mass carries weak $SU(2)$ charge. For $m_t \sim 150$ GeV there exist potentially…
The full solution of technicolor (TC) Schwinger-Dyson equations should include radiative corrections induced by extended technicolor (ETC) (or other) interactions. We verify that when TC is embedded into a larger theory including also QCD,…
Several aspects of the flavor-diagonal extended technicolor (ETC) gauge boson are reviewed. Among them are an increase of $R_b$ that could explain the LEP $R_b$ excess, a sizable, positive correction to the $\tau$ asymmetry parameter…
We calculate the Z boson propagator correction, as described by the S parameter, in technicolor theories with extended technicolor interactions included. Our method is to solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the requisite current-current…
Extended technicolor (ETC) theories typically require ETC gauge bosons lighter than of order 1 TeV, to perturbatively generate the $t$ quark mass. We point out that explicit models of $t-b$ mass splitting also typically contain additional…
LEP precision measurements of the $Zb\bar{b}$ vertex coupling are sufficiently accurate to see the non-oblique corrections from the heavy gauge boson responsible for the large top mass in standard extended tecnicolour models. If the ETC…
The deviation of the experimental value of $R_b \equiv \Gamma_b/\Gamma_h$ from the standard-model prediction can be naturally explained in the extended technicolor scenario.The diagonal extended technicolor gauge boson which…
We show that the flavor-diagonal gauge boson of the extended technicolor theory contributes with opposite sign to the standard model correction for the $Zbb$ vertex. This mechanism can naturally explain the deviation of the LEP result from…
We review the connection between $m_t$ and the $Zb\bar b$ vertex in ETC models and demonstrate the power of the resulting experimental constraint on models with weak-singlet ETC bosons. Some efforts to bring ETC models into agreement with…

Oblique radiative corrections are calculated to the parameter $S$ in a version of the standard model where the Higgs doublet is replaced by a doublet of vector bosons and the gauge symmetry is broken dynamically. We show that to each…
