Theory requirements for SM Higgs and EW precision physics at the FCC-ee
High precision experimental measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson
at 125 GeV as well as electroweak precision observables such as the W
-boson mass or the effective weak leptonic mixing angle are expected at future
colliders such as the FCC-ee. This high anticipated precision has to
be matched with theory predictions for the measured quantities at the same
level of accuracy. We briefly summarize the status of these predictions within
the Standard Model (SM) and of the tools that are used for their determination.
We outline how the theory predictions will have to be improved in order to
reach the required accuracy, and also comment on the simulation frameworks for
the Higgs and EW precision program.Comment: Submitted to EPJ Plus, Focus Point on A future Higgs & Electroweak
