The last missing correction to the muon lifetime in the Standard Model at O(alpha^2) coming from gauge and Higgs boson loops is presented. The associated contribution to the parameter Delta r in the on-shell scheme ranges from 6 times 10^{-5} to -4 times 10^{-5} for Higgs boson masses from 100 GeV to 1 TeV. This result translates into a shift of the W boson mass which does not exceed +/- 1 MeV in the same range and amounts in particular to approximately -0.8 MeV for a 115 GeV Higgs boson.

  1. Three-loop corrections to the Fermi decay constant in the $\overline{\rm{MS}}$ scheme

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The leading three-loop corrections to the Fermi decay constant in the pure MS scheme are computed, shifting the Standard Model Higgs VEV down by about 3.5 MeV and cutting residual scale dependence to below 2e-6.

  2. The Higgs boson through the lens of electroweak precision data

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Updated Gfitter EW fit with new MW average yields SM-consistent indirect observables and, via kappa_V from oblique parameters plus LHC signal strengths, determines Gamma_H to ~10% precision under leading-log assumptions.
