Review of Final LEP Results or A Tribute to LEP
J. Drees
TL;DR
This paper reviews the final results from LEP, highlighting precision measurements and their implications for the Standard Model, including Z resonance, W and Z production, Higgs limits, CKM matrix, and alpha_s.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive overview of LEP's final physics results, emphasizing their impact on particle physics understanding.
Findings
Precise Z resonance measurements confirmed Standard Model predictions.
Constraints on the Higgs boson mass were established.
LEP measurements of alpha_s contributed to QCD tests.
Abstract
After a comment on the performance of LEP some highlights of the LEP1 and LEP2 physics programmes are reviewed. The talk concentrates on the precision measurements at the Z resonance, two fermion production above the Z, W+W- production, ZZ production, indirect limits on the Higgs mass, LEP contributions to the exploration of the CKM matrix, and on the LEP measurements of alpha_s.
