Electroweak measurements at the fermilab Tevatron

Proceedings of the 52nd Rencontres De Moriond 2017 Qcd and High Energy Interactions (2017) 35-38

Abstract:

The Fermilab Tevatron produced proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of vs = 1.96 TeV between 2001 and 2011. Using an integrated luminosity of ˜ 10 fb-1 collected by each of the two general-purpose experiments CDF and D0, many high-precision measurements were performed. I summarize the three electroweak measurements with the highest precision: the W-boson mass, the top-quark mass, and the effective Z-boson vector couplings.

Measurement of the sm higgs boson mass in the diphoton and 4` decay channels using the atlas detector

Proceedings of Science (2017)

Abstract:

One of the fundamental properties of the Higgs boson, its mass, is measured by studying the invariant mass of the 4` and diphoton decay channels with about 36 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Since in these channels the final state can be fully reconstructed, an invariant mass peak with a good experimental resolution can be obtained in a model independent way and used as an input to compare other Higgs properties measurements with the SM predictions. The measured values of the Higgs boson mass for the H → ZZ∗ → 4` and H → γ γ decay modes are mH = 124.88 ± 0.37 (stat) ± 0.05 (syst) GeV and mH = 125.11 ± 0.21 (stat) ± 0.36 (syst) GeV respectively, and the mass derived from the combined fit is mH = 124.98 ±0.19 (stat) ±0.21 (syst) GeV. These results are in good agreement with the LHC Run-1 average of 125.09 ± 0.24 GeV.

Prospects for new physics in τ →lμ at current and future colliders

Proceedings of Science 2017-April (2017)

Authors:

C Hays, M Mitra, M Spannowsky, P Waite

Abstract:

We investigate constraints on the branching fractions of the lepton-flavour-violating decays τ →lμ μ at current and future pp and e+e-colliders. The constraints are translated into those on parameters of the Type-II Seesaw Model, the Left-Right-Symmetric Model, and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.
