Precision Electroweak Measurements
Abstract
Description
Recent electroweak precision measurements from e+e- and pbarp colliders are presented. Some emphasis is placed on the recent developments in the heavy flavor sector. The measurements are compared to predictions from the Standard Model of electroweak interactions. All results are found to be consistent with the Standard Model. The indirect constraint on the top quark mass from all measurements is in excellent agreement with the direct Mt measurements. Using the world's electroweak data in conjunction with the current measurement of the top quark mass, the constraints on the Higgs mass are discussed.
