Recent results of tests of the Standard Model of electroweak interactions are presented. Data are used from the four LEP experiments, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3, OPAL, the SLD experiment at SLC, the TEVATRON p-pbar experiments CDF and D0 and the…
The decay Bs to mu+ mu- is one of the milestones of the flavor program at the LHC. We reappraise its Standard Model prediction. First, by analyzing the theoretical rate in the light of its main parametric dependence, we highlight the…
The NuTeV Collaboration has measured the electroweak parameters sin^2 theta_W and rho in neutrino-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering using a sign-selected beam. The nearly pure neutrino or antineutrino beams that result provide many of the…
