ElectroWeak - Standard Model

The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider is a substantial upgrade of the B factory facility at the Japanese KEK laboratory. The design luminosity of the machine is $8\times 10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ and the Belle II experiment aims to record 50 ab$^{-1}$ of data, a factor of 50 more than its predecessor. From February to July 2018, the machine has...
In the Standard Model, fermion masses are generated by Yukawa couplings between the Higgs boson and the fermions. These couplings can be determined from measurements of Higgs boson production and decays. For example, Higgs boson production via gluon fusion and in association with a ttbar pair are sensitive to the top Yukawa coupling, and Higgs boson decays to fermions are sensitive to the...
The main goal of experiments with CMD-3 is the measurement of the cross-sections and dynamics of the exclusive
modes of e+e-->hadrons reactions. In particular, these results provide important input for the hadronic vacuum polarization function
P(q^2), which plays a central role in various issues of QCD and Standard Model, such as hadronic tensor, running electromagnetic coupling and the...
