Description

I will discuss some of the measurement techniques for mW that can be
available at future lepton colliders referring as appropriate to methods
used already at LEP. Key aspects are related to center-of-mass energy and
background control, understanding of hadronization, 4-fermion effects,
and tracker momentum and hadronic mass scales. The utility of longitudinally polarized beams and e-gamma based measurements will be emphasized, and recent work towards using light mesons with well-known daughter masses for tracker momentum scale determination will be presented.
