αs and |Vcs| determination, and CKM unitarity test, from W decays at NNLO

The hadronic (ΓhadW) and total (ΓtotW) widths of the W boson, computed at least at next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) accuracy, are combined to derive a new precise prediction for the hadronic W branching ratio BhadW ≡ ΓhadW/ΓtotW=0.682±0.011par, using the experimental Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (C...
