# Electroweak Precision Tests of the Standard Model after the Discovery of the Higgs Boson

## TL;DR

This paper reviews the latest theoretical calculations and precision measurements from the LHC to test the consistency of the Standard Model's electroweak sector after the Higgs boson discovery, highlighting the impact of the Higgs mass.

## Contribution

It provides an updated analysis of electroweak precision tests incorporating the measured Higgs mass, assessing the Standard Model's internal consistency and implications for new physics.

## Key findings

- The Higgs mass measurement constrains electroweak fit parameters.
- Current data shows good agreement with Standard Model predictions.
- The fit limits possible extensions beyond the Standard Model.

## Abstract

The global fit of the Standard Model predictions to electroweak precision data, which has been routinely performed in the past decades by several groups, led to the prediction of the top quark and the Higgs boson masses before their respective discoveries. With the measurement of the Higgs boson mass at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012 by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, the last free parameter of the Standard Model of particle physics has been fixed, and the global electroweak fit can be used to test the full internal consistency of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model and constrain models beyond. In this article, we review the current state-of-the-art theoretical calculations, as well as the precision measurements performed at the LHC, and interpret them within the context of the global electroweak fit. Special focus is drawn in the impact of the Higgs boson mass on the fit.
