W Mass results from Tevatron and LHC

Abstract

Most recent results of $W$ boson mass measurements from Tevatron experiments (CDF and D0) in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ GeV are reported, using $0.2f{b}^{-1}$ and $1.0f{b}^{-1}$ data collected at CDF and D0, respectively. The measurements of $W$ boson properties at LHC experiments (ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb) in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV, using data collected before Summer 2011, are presented. These measurements are essential at the preparation stage of the $W$ boson mass measurements at LHC. Challenges for $W$ mass measurement at the LHC in comparison with the Tevatron are outlined. Prospects for $W$ mass precision with upcoming measurements and its implications are discussed.
