FULL ONE-LOOP SUPERSYMMETRIC QUANTUM EFFECTS ON Mw

Abstract

We present a detailed numerical analysis of a fully-fledged computation of one-loop supersymmetric quantum effects on the mass of the weak gauge boson W± in the standard on-shell renormalization scheme based on the input parameters (GF, α, MZ). The importance of the process-dependent contributions as compared to the universal effects is assessed. The final numerical results show that in large regions of parameter space the potential radiative shifts [Formula: see text] could be within the level of precision expected at LEP II, depending on the model considered. A comparison is made with other renormalization frameworks.
