The utility of precision electroweak measurements for predicting the Standard Model Higgs mass via quantum loop effects is discussed. Current constraints from $m_W$ and $\sinsthw\mzms$ imply a relatively light Higgs $\lsim 154$ GeV which is…
This talk describes some of the precision electroweak measurements from around the world, namely those related to the Z and W bosons, the top quark mass, sin2 theta_ W at NuTeV, and three other fundamental measurements: alpha-1 m2_ Z,…
Because of two 3 sigma anomalies, the Standard Model (SM) fit of the precision electroweak data has a poor confidence level, CL= 0.010. Since both anomalies involve challenging systematic issues, it might appear that the SM could still be…
The status of published and preliminary precision electroweak measurements as of winter 2002/03 is presented. The new results on the mass of the W boson as measured at LEP-2 and on atomic parity violation in Caesium are included. The…
The status of the electroweak precision data as of winter 2003 and the corresponding theoretical calculations are presented. The possible problems within the data and the calculations are discussed in a critical way. If the NuTeV anomaly…
The Standard Model (SM) with a light Higgs boson provides a very good description of the precision electroweak observable data coming from the LEP, SLD and Tevatron experiments. Most of the observables, with the notable exception of the…
We summarize theoretical explanations of the three $\sigma$ discrepancy between $\sin^2 \theta_W$ measured by NuTeV and predicted by the Standard Model global fit. Possible new physics explanations ({\it e.g.} an unmized $Z'$) are not…
The $W$ boson mass is one of the most important electroweak precision observables for testing the Standard Model or its extensions. The very recent measured $W$ boson mass at CDF shows about $7\sigma$ deviations from the SM prediction,…
We critically reexamine the precision tests of the standard model by coupling the current world average value of $M_W$ with the recent LEP electroweak data with the aid of a modified ZFITTER program to include the dominant two-loop and…
Because of two $3\sigma$ anomalies, the Standard Model (SM) fit of the precision electroweak data has a poor confidence level, $CL= 0.02$. Since both anomalies involve challenging systematic issues, it might appear that the SM could still…
The current status of electroweak physics results from LEP is reviewed. Particular emphasis is placed on the latest results on the properties of the Z and W bosons. The updated status of the global electroweak fit to the standard model and…
The current status of the quantities entering into the global electroweak fits is reviewed, highlighting changes since Summer 2003. These data include the precision electroweak properties of the Z and W bosons, the top-quark mass and the…
We present an update of the global fit of the Standard Model electroweak sector to latest experimental results. We include new kinematic top quark and $W$ boson mass measurements from the LHC, a $\sin^2\theta^{\ell}_{\mathrm{eff}}$ result…
Combining precision measurements and the Higgs boson search limit, the electroweak data has evolved to a point where new physics is favored whether the 3.2 sigma A_{FB}^b anomaly is genuine or not. Such new physics could greatly alter the…
We present results from the global electroweak fit to precision measurements in the Standard Model (SM). The fit uses the latest theoretical calculations for observables on the $Z$ pole and the $W$ boson mass, yielding precise SM…
An update of the electroweak measurements at LEP and SLC is presented. These measurements are used to perform precise tests of the Standard Model. A constraint on the Standard Model Higgs mass is obtained when the direct measurements of…
In light of the discovery of a Higgs-like particle at the LHC, we revisit the status of the precision electroweak data, focusing on two discrepant observables: 1) the long-standing 2.4 sigma deviation in the forward-backward asymmetry of…
The global electroweak fit of the Standard Model (SM) with Gfitter can be used to constrain yet unknown SM parameters, such as the Higgs mass, but also physics beyond the SM (BSM) via the formalism of oblique parameters. This paper presents…
The NuTeV collaboration has performed precision measurements of the ratio of neutral current to charged current cross-sections in high rate, high energy neutrino and anti-neutrino beams on a dense, primarily steel, target. The separate…
The status of precision electroweak measurements as of summer 2002 is reviewed. The recent results on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and on neutrino-nucleon scattering are discussed. Precision results on the electroweak…
