Errata for the 2018 Review of Particle Physics
During the time between editions of the
Review of Particle Physics and the
Particle Physics Booklet, we often find a number of errata. We correct most errata on our WWW pages. If you should find errata that are not known to us, please send mail to
pdg @ lbl.gov.
For errata in previous editions, please see:

Errata for the 2018 Edition:
Page 3 of the Web version below:
-
(November 16, 2018):
The value of the Z decay mode Γ5 ($\ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+ \ell^-$) fraction Γ5/Γ should read: $(4.45 \pm 0.32) \times 10^{-6}$

Page 7 of the Web version below:
-
(November 16, 2018):
The header text under Γ($\ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+ \ell^-$)/Γtotal (Γ5/Γ) should continue with:
The branching fractions in this node are given within the phase-space defined by the requirements that
(i) the 4-lepton invariant mass is between 80 GeV and 100 GeV, and
(ii) any opposite-sign same-flavor lepton pair has a di-lepton invariant mass larger than 4 GeV.
- OUR AVERAGE value for the Z decay mode Γ($\ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+ \ell^-$)/Γ fraction should read: $4.45 \pm 0.32$
- AAD 14N value for the Z decay mode Γ($\ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+ \ell^-$)/Γ fraction should read: $4.31 \pm 0.34 \pm 0.17$
- CHATRCHYAN 12BN value for the Z decay mode Γ($\ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+ \ell^-$)/Γ fraction should read: $4.6^{+1.0}_{-0.9} \pm 0.2$
and have a footnote:
2CHATRCHYAN 12BN reports $(4.2^{+0.9}_{-0.8} \pm 0.2) \times 10^{-6}$ value. Their result (both central value and uncertainties) is scaled
by 10% to account for the different phase-space definition used here (see RAINBOLT 18, arXiv:1805.05791 (2018)).

(August 13, 2019):
The charge of the d, s, and b quarks should be listed as $-1/3$ (in the first paragraph).
