We consider extensions of the Standard Model with neutral scalars in multiplets of $SU(2)$ larger than doublets. When those scalars acquire vacuum expectation values, the resulting masses of the gauge bosons $W^\pm$ and $Z^0$ are not…
The present status of precision electroweak data is reviewed. These data include measurements of e+e- -> f+fbar, taken at the Z resonance at LEP, which are used to determine the mass and width of the Z boson. In addition, measurements have…
Measurements of electroweak precision observables at future electron-positron colliders, such as the CEPC, FCC-ee, and ILC, will be sensitive to physics at multi-TeV scales. To achieve this sensitivity, precise predictions for the Standard…
Recently, realistic theories of electroweak symmetry breaking have been constructed in which the electroweak symmetry is broken by boundary conditions imposed at a boundary of higher dimensional spacetime. These theories have equivalent 4D…
We investigated the electroweak corrections from one-loop diagrams involving the third generation (s)quarks to the decay width of process $\tilde{\chi}_1^+ \to W^+ \tilde{\chi}_1^{0}$ in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard…
The presence of an extra dimension of size R \approx TeV^{-1} introduces a tower of Kaluza-Klein gauge boson excitations that affects the standard model (SM) relations between electroweak observables. The mixing of the W and Z bosons with…
We extend our previous work on the precision electroweak tests in the Sp(6)_L X U(1)_Y family model to include for the first time the important Z->b b-bar vertex corrections encoded in a new variable epsilon_b, utilizing all the latest LEP…
The presently most accurate prediction for the W-boson mass in the Standard Model is obtained by combining the complete two-loop result with the known higher-order QCD and electroweak corrections. The numerical impact of the different…
We study radiative corrections to third generation scalar fermions into gauge bosons $Z$ and $W^\pm$. We include both SUSY-QCD, QED and full electroweak corrections. It is found that the electroweak corrections can be of the same order as…
In this addendum to Phys. Rev. D 88, no. 1, 013009 (2013), we give results for the electroweak Sudakov corrections in gauge-boson production at large transverse momentum p_T at proton colliders. In order for the results to be easily usable,…
I will argue why and how it is that precise measurements of the self-couplings of the weak vector bosons are a vista on the mechanism of symmetry breaking. Guided by what we have learnt from the present precision data, it is suggested which…
Overall, the Standard Model describes electroweak precision data rather well. There are however a few areas of tension (charged current universality, NuTeV, (g-2)_\mu, b quark asymmetries), which I review emphasizing recent theoretical and…
Results of an updated global electoweak fit to the Standard Model (SM) are presented, where special attention is paid to some key observables, such as the weak mixing angle, the $W$ boson mass, and the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.…
The standard electroweak theory is tested at non-trivial quantum correction level through $\alpha$, $G_F$ and the latest data of the weak-boson masses. The improved-Born approximation and the non-decoupling top-quark effects are studied…
Future high energy linear electron positron colliders with centre-of-mass enegies between 90 and 1000 GeV offer a unique opportunity to study precisely the Standard Model and phenomena from new physics. Most important, the mechanism of…
We compute the three-dimensional effective action for the minimal supersymmetric standard model, which describes the light modes of the theory near the finite-temperature electroweak phase transition, keeping the one-loop corrections from…
We calculate the $O(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^{2}/m_{W}^{2})$ and $O(\alpha_{ew} m_{t(b)}^4/m_W^4)$ supersymmetric electroweak corrections to the process $H^+\to W^+h$ in the Minimal Supersymmetric Model. These corrections arise from the virtual…
We review the current status of precision electroweak measurements and the constraints they impose on new physics. We perform a model independent analysis using the STU-formalism of Ref. 1, and then discuss how the Z-pole data from LEP and…
A linear realization of a model of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking describing additional heavy vector bosons is proposed. The model is a SU(2)_L x U(1) x SU(2)_L' x SU(2)_R' gauge theory, breaking at some high scale u to SU(2)_weak…
We construct models in which electroweak symmetry is spontaneously broken by supersymmetric strong dynamics at the TeV scale. The order parameter is a composite of scalars, and the longitudinal components of the W and Z are strongly-coupled…
