  • The precise measurement of the W boson mass is closely related to the contributions of new physics (NP), which can significantly constrain the parameter space of NP models, particularly those with an additional $U(1)$ local gauge group. The inclusion of a new $Z'$ gauge boson and gauge couplings in these models can contribute to the oblique parameters $S$, $T$, $U$ and W boson mass at tree level. Taking into account the effects of kinetic mixing, we calculate and analyze the oblique parameters $S$, $T$, $U$ and W boson mass in such NP models in this study. It is found that the kinetic mixing effects can make significant contributions to the W boson mass, which can satisfy the recently measured W boson mass at CDF II or ATLAS by choosing appropriate values of gauge coupling constants and extra $U(1)$ group charges of leptons or scalar doublets. In addition, if the leptonic Yukawa couplings are invariant under the extra $U(1)$ local gauge group, these contributions can be eliminated by redefining the gauge boson fields through eliminating the neutral currents involving charged leptons, even with nonzero kinetic mixing effects.
