The Standard Model of Particle Physics: Status & Low-Energy Tests

Abstract

Precision measurements of low-energy observables provide stringent tests of the Standard Model structure and accurate determinations of its parameters. An overview of the present experimental status is presented. The main topics discussed are the muon anomalous magnetic moment, the asymptotic freedom of strong interactions, the lepton universality of gauge couplings, the quark flavour structure and CP violation.
