Introduction
Not Covered: the Construction of the SM Lagrangian
... because you have probably seen it;
... because I would have to rush through it;
... because there are many excellent textbooks providing any degree of detail;
... because it is 2008, so any electroweak lecture will need to take some time to talk about the LHC;
... and because I would end up giving lectures on Quantum Field Theory.
The Standard Model (SM): History
✓ Lorentz invariance, quantum mechanics, the cluster decomposition principle, and 1⁄r²-forces for helicity ±1 particles ⇒ gauge invariance (Weinberg, 1965).
✓ “A model of leptons” (Weinberg, 1967).
✓ Renormalizability of non-Abelian gauge theories (‘t Hooft, Veltman; Lee, Zinn-Justin, 1972).
✓ Discovery of asymptotic freedom (Gross, Wilczek; Politzer, 1973).
✓ Discovery of the weak neutral current (CERN, 1973).
SM History (contd.)
✓ P in polarized e⁻-d DIS (Prescott et al., 1978).
✓ Discovery of W and Z bosons (UA1 & UA2, 1983).
➡ SM correct at least to first approximation.
Need high precision experiments to establish the SM as a renormalizable QFT at level of quantum effects.
g²⁄4π² ≈ 0.01 ⇒ need better than 1% accuracies.
✓ Z factories LEP 1 and SLC (1989).
➡ SM firmly established and new physics beyond it can only be a small perturbation.
SM Parameters
Spin 1 sector (gauge couplings): g, g′, g₃; or 4π αˢ= g₃² together with P and CP violating θ-angle; 4π α = gg′∕(g²+g′²) and sin²θᵂ = g′²∕(g²+g′²), where Z = cosθᵂ W³ − sinθᵂ B, A = sinθᵂ W³ + cosθᵂ B.
Spin ½ sector (Yukawa couplings): 9 fermion masses, 3 Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) mixing angles, 1 CP violating CKM phase; 3 mixing angles, 1 Dirac phase, 2 Majorana phases in Maki, Nakagawa, Sakata (MNS) matrix (dimension 5 term or right-handed ν).
Spin 0 sector (Higgs potential): μ and λ or Mᴴ = √−2μ², v = Mᴴ∕λ.
Mass Determinations
Z boson mass and width from LEP 1.
W boson mass and width from LEP 2 and Tevatron.
Top quark mass from Tevatron and (before) global fit.
Charm and bottom quark masses from QCD sum rules.
Light quark mass scale from lattice gauge theory.
Light quark mass ratios from χPT.
Higgs boson mass from global fit and (later) LHC.

Electroweak Physics at Hadron Colliders
W and Z Boson Production: Milestones
✓ NNLO QCD fully differential cross-sections.
✓ Leading log soft gluon re-summation for pᵀ(W).
✓ O(α) EW corrections ⇒ ΔΓ(W) ≈ 7 MeV; to resonant production: ΔM(W) ≈ 10 MeV.
✓ O(α) final state γ radiation ⇒ ΔM(W) ≈ −65 ± 20 (−168 ± 20) MeV for e (μ).
✓ Multiple final state QED ⇒ ΔM(W) ≈ 2 (10) MeV.
✓ ∃ a number of MC event generators.
W and Z Boson Production: Open Issues
- O(ααˢ) mixed EW and QCD corrections.
- Higher-order EW Sudakov-like logarithms.
- Non-perturbative QCD contributions.
- Small x effects.
- Heavy quark mass effects.
- Grand Unification of MC programs.

Global Analysis
General Considerations
Should one average deviating data, or make choices what to keep (→ central limit bias)?
Should errors be estimated realistically or conservatively (→ overweight aggressive errors)?
Add errors linearly as a means to be conservative?
Replace theory input by experimental data whenever possible? Distinction always clear?
Central limit theorem for theoretical and syst. errors.
Take investor’s approach: diversification!

Fully inclusive.
Double zero near branch cut.
Non-perturbative effects constrained from data.

Small Deviations
Extra Fermion Generation (1)
If degenerate (T = U = 0) ⇒ ΔS = 2∕3π = 0.21; excluded at the 6σ level (Nᴳ = 2.71 ± 0.22).
Complementary to Nᴳ = 2.991 ± 0.007 from before.
Allowing T to float ⇒ T = 0.232 ± 0.045, but Δχ² = 6.8 relative to SM fit with Mᴴ = 117 GeV fixed (also excluded at 99% CL).
Designer splitting of extra doublets: He, Polonsky, Su, hep-ph/0102144, Novikov, Okun, Rozanov, Vysotsky, hep-ph/0203132, Bulanov et al., hep-ph/0301268, Kribs et al., hep-ph/0706.3718.
Extra Fermion Generation (2)
EW fit improves with 4th ν-mass ~50 GeV, but LEP 2 ⇒ it must be stable (dark matter).
To soften S constraint use ΔS ≈ N(1−4Y ln mᵘ/mᵈ)∕6π.
m(ν₄) = 100 GeV, m(l₄) = 155 GeV ⇒ (S,T) ≈ (0,0.05).
m(u₄) = 400 GeV, m(d₄) = 350 GeV ⇒ (S,T) ≈
(0.15,0.14) or a total of (0.15,0.19) (Mᴴ = 115 GeV).
Kribs et al., hep-ph/0706.3718: this is “within the 68% CL contour defined by LEP EWWG”.
ST comparison with LEP EWWG
LEP EWWG (adjusted by Kribs et al.): (S,T) = (0.055, 0.114); my fit: (S,T) = (0.060, 0.114) for same inputs.
αˢ and Δα(had) (incl. τ data) free ⇒ (S,T) = (0.027, 0.088).
Include low energy data but not ν-DIS ⇒(S,T) = (−0.020, 0.041).
Include also ν-DIS (with new NuTeV strange quark asymmetry) ⇒ (S,T) = (−0.054, 0.003).
PDG 2008 update: (S,T) = (−0.042, 0.018).
SI 2008 update: (S,T) = (−0.012±0.087, 0.030±0.083)

Top Quark Mass at Hadron Colliders
Running Electromagnetic Coupling
Improved recently, but still largest theory uncertainty.
Would need more than a factor of 3 improvement to match GigaZ precision of weak mixing angle.
May be possible with combined effort from theory and experiments in e⁺e⁻-annihilation (statistics), radiative returns (systematics), and τ-decays (theory; isospin!).
Pion form factor & charm continuum threshold region!
Expect continued incremental progress.

Higgs Boson Physics: Projections
LHC: Higgs primarily from gluon fusion, gg → H, vector boson fusion, qq’ → Hqq’, and associated production, pp → ttH ⇒ Htt-Yukawa (20-30%).
Hbb, Hττ, WWH, ZZH couplings (10-30%).
λ to 20 (70)% for 150-200 (<140) GeV Higgs (3 ab⁻¹).ILC: e⁺e⁻→ZH→l⁺l⁻H (Higgs-strahlung); e⁺e⁻→ ttH.
Hbb, Hττ, Htt, WWH, ZZH very precise, Hcc less.
λ to 20% for a 120 GeV Higgs (e.g. in e⁺e⁻ → ZHH).
Top Quark Physics
Single top production: measure Vᵗᵇ, Tevatron Run II expected: ± 9% (10 fb⁻¹), LHC: ± 5% (30 fb⁻¹).Anomalous FCNC couplings: HERA, Tevatron (LHC) sensitive at 10⁻¹ to 10⁻² (10⁻⁴ to 10⁻⁵) level, SM 10⁻¹⁴: t → Vq (V = Z, γ, g; q ≠ b) (also constrains W′).tt spin correlations (± 10%): establish spin ½, test non-standard production (resonances), decay to H⁺b.
Mᵗᵗ invariant mass distribution: resonances (e.g. M(Z′) > 760 GeV from D0) or interference with new physics.
Top mass distribution ⇒ m(t′) > 311 GeV (CDF).
Low Energy Measurements
Complemenarity.
Diagnostics.
Discovery potential.
Why are low energy measurement needed if we have the LHC and perhaps an ILC?

Polarized Electron Scattering
LR cross-section asymmetry: Interference between P conserving γ amplitude and P Z⁰ mediated amplitude.
eD-DIS (1978): Q²⁄M² ~ 10⁻⁴ ⇒ 10⁻⁵ uncertainty ↔10% determination of Z⁰ amplitude (SLAC)
e⁻e⁻ (Møller)-scattering (2005): Q² = 0.026 GeV²; Aᵖᵛ = (-1.31 ± 0.17)×10⁻⁷ (SLAC) ⇒sin²θᵂ(Q²) = 0.2397 ± 0.0013 ; improve at JLab?
e⁻p-scattering (Qweak, 2011): same Q² ⇒ weak charge of the proton (∝ 1−4 sin²θᵂ) to ±4% (JLab).

Atomic Parity Violation (APV)
APV → mixing between opposite parity states.
Effect extremely small; use small modulation of level mixing by external electric field (Stark-mixing).
Effect ∝ Z³ ⇒ use heavy atoms.
Comparison of hyperfine levels ⇒ weak charges and anapole moment.
Complication: atomic structure calculations.
Most precise: ⁷s→⁶s transition in Cs (Boulder) ⇒ Qᵂ(Cs) = 72.62 ± 0.46 ⇒ sin²θᵂ = 0.2291 ± 0.0019.
NuTeV (νN and νN-scattering)
2.0 σ deviation from SM ⇒ new physics?
Was 2.7 σ before inclusion of ∫ dx x (S − S) = 0.0020 ± 0.0014 (NuTeV now agrees with CTEQ).
New QED radiative corrections (Diener, Dittmaier, Hollik) but not yet included by NuTeV collaboration.
Valence parton Charge Symmetry Violation (CSV) due to “quark model” and “QED splitting effects” each predict removal of 1 σ; phenomenological parton CSV PDFs can remove or double the effect (MRST).
Nuclear effects: different for NC and CC; 20% of effect, both signs possible (Brodsky, Schmidt, Yang).
Muon g−2: Issues
2.7 σ deviation from SM ⇒ supersymmetry?
For 2-loop vacuum polarization contribution need optical theorem and same data as for running α and running weak mixing angle.
Inconsistencies between τ decay and e⁺e⁻ data.
Inconsistencies between e⁺e⁻ annihilation data.
Extra trouble: 3-loop light-by-light contribution.
Quark level estimate (JE, G. Toledo, hep-ph/0605052) aᴸᴮᴸ(μ, had) < 1.59 × 10⁻⁹.

4.5 σ discrepancy between B(τ→νππ) from electro-production and direct
Conclusions
SM still standing (only relatively small number of statistically insignificant deviations).
Searches at the Tevatron Run II and the LHC likely to yield discovery of new physics.
Electroweak precision measurements both at colliders and low-energy will give guidance and discriminatory power as to what was discovered.
