Standard model coupling strengths

AI Thread Summary
The most accurate values for standard model coupling strengths at the mass of the Z boson can be found on the Particle Data Group's website. The summary tables provide essential information, including the fine structure constant. The interpretation of these values may vary based on the renormalization scheme used. It is important to note that the definition of the fine structure constant at the Z boson mass is contingent on the chosen scheme. Accurate calculations depend on these specific parameters.

Hi guys,

Where can i find the most up to date (accurate) values of the standard model coupling strengths at the mass of the Z boson? Thanks

I think that what you are looking for is in the summary tables.

(for the fine structure constant, see http://pdg.lbl.gov/2008/reviews/rpp2008-rev-phys-constants.pdf )

EDIT: oops, I misread your question: I thought you asked for the standard coupling constant and the mass of the Z boson.

What you ask for can be calculated from them, but you will depend on the exact renormalisation scheme you use (whatever you call 'the fine structure constant at Z mass' depends on your renormalisation scheme).
