abstract = {he Standard Model is the most powerful theory describing
the fundamental constituents of matter and their
interactions. Historically, relations between the
fundamental parameters of the SM have been used to predict
the mass of the top quark and to put constraints on the
Higgs boson mass before these particles were experimentally
confirmed. Today, the indirect determination of the W-boson
mass from global electroweak fits outperforms the precision
of its experimentally measured value. An improved
experimental measurement is, therefore, one of the goals of
the LHC physics program, aiming to test the overall
consistency of the Standard Model and possibly reveal new,
conflicting phenomena.The seminar will discuss the improved
measurement of the mass of the W boson at a centre-of-mass
energy of 7 TeV, recently released by the ATLAS
Collaboration. The previous ATLAS measurement is
re-evaluated using a profile likelihood fit, which improves
the precision of the mass determination by $15\%$ by fully
exploiting the information present in data.Further
improvements of the mass measurements are challenging and
the modelling of the W-boson production and decay is one of
the limiting factors to ultimately reach an uncertainty of
10 MeV at the LHC. New ATLAS measurements of the W and Z
boson transverse momenta at a 5 and 13 TeV will also be
presented. This remarkable analysis is performed using
dedicated LHC runs with reduced instantaneous luminosity.
Such an experimental environment is favourable for the
reconstruction of the W-boson transverse momentum from the
hadronic recoil. A high resolution of the hadronic recoil
allows the low transverse momentum of the W boson to be
measured with unprecedented granularity. The measurement
provides a fundamental input for reducing the
physics-modelling uncertainties in future W-boson mass
determinations.},
