Electroweak Measurements on the Z Resonance

Abstract

Almost all precision electroweak measurements from the Z resonance made at the LEP storage ring by the ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL experiments and those made using a polarized electron beam at the SLC by the SLD experiment are now final and have been published. Changes in the measurements since the last RADCOR meeting are discussed. The internal consistency of the measurements is considered. The impact of remaining theoretical uncertainties in the QCD sector are examined as well as the impact of experimental and theoretical uncertainties on the value of ${\alpha }_{\mathrm{QED}}(m_{\mathrm{Z}})$.
