Status of the global fit to electroweak precisions data


Abstract in English

In this presentation Gfitter results from the global Standard Model (SM) fit to electroweak precision data are discussed. We have used the latest measurements of m_top and M_W and the most recent results for direct Higgs searches at LEP and Tevatron. We obtain M_H=121^{+17}_{-6} GeV and a 95% CL upper limit of 155 GeV for the SM Higgs mass. The forth-order result for the strong coupling constant is given by alpha_S(M_Z^2)=0.1193 +- 0.0028(exp) +- 0.0001(theo). In addition the electroweak fit has been performed with the top mass determined from the ttbar cross-section as measured at Tevatron.
