The rho-parameter and top quark mass constraints

Experimental determinations of limits on radiative effects in the Standard Model can be used to place limits on the mass of the top quark. This is exemplified by the comparison of the ⍴-parameter, as determined by neutrino-electron scattering experiments, to the radiative corrections to that quantit...
