Progress on topics related to understanding the potential for precision measurements of the W mass will be reported building on previous work. This includes recent work on WW event selection issues relevant to continuum and threshold, further work on assessing the performance of lepton-based W mass estimators, and developments associated with constrained kinematic fits.
The majority of Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation campaigns for future Higgs factories has so far been based on the leading-order (LO) matrix elements provided by Whizard 1.95, followed by parton shower and hadronization in Pythia6, using the tune of the OPAL experiment at LEP. In this contribution, we test the next-to-leading-order (NLO) mode of Whizard. NLO events of key processes ($e^+e^-\to...
At all center-of-mass energies of a future high-energy e$^{+}$e$^{-}$ collider precise determination of the absolute integrated luminosity underpins the physics program. It is especially critical for measuring the number of light neutrino generations ($N_{\nu}$). In this contribution we will emphasize the prospects and investigate the potential of using the pure QED process,...
In this talk we explore the interpretation of neutrino masses as radiatively generated, leveraging the forthcoming precision at the Future Circular Collider. We highlight the discernibility of Higgs-strahlung signals and radiative corrections as key tools for revealing New Physics. In particular, we consider the role of extra fermions in altering the signature proper of the Inert Doublet...
