Extracting the weak mixing angle at intermediate Q^2
ORAL · Invited
Abstract
Over the next several years, a number of experiments will perform precision measurements, comparable to measurements made near the Z pole, of the weak mixing angle, a fundamental parameter of the Standard Model, at low Q2. In this talk, I will discuss planned parity-violating deep inelastic scattering (PVDIS) experiments with the solenoidal large intensity device (SoLID)at Jefferson Lab as well as with the future Electron Ion Collider (EIC), which can provide new insights and potential searched for Beyond-the-Standard Model(BSM) physics at intermediate Q2 values. I will briefly outline the PVDIS program with SoLID as well as the capabilities of electroweak physics with the ePIC detector and highlight the impact each can have on measuring the weak-mixing angle at moderate Q2 values.
