Electroweak Physics Results from NuTeV
Abstract
Description
NuTeV has performed precise measurements of neutral-current to charged-current cross section ratios using intense high energy neutrino and anti-neutrino beams on a primarily steel target at the Fermilab Tevatron. A null hypothesis test of the standard model allows the extraction $\sin^2θ_W^{νN}(\equiv 1-M_W^2/M_Z^2)=0.2277\pm0.0013(stat)\pm0.0009(syst)$, a value that differs from predictions of global electroweak fits by $+3.0σ$.
