The line shape of the Z boson

Abstract

At LEP~1, cross sections and cross section asymmetries may be analysed model independently. Cross sections depend on four, asymmetries on two free parameters. As an example, I discuss the model independent Z boson mass determination from the Z line shape and compare it to the Standard Model approach.
