Abstract
As present and future experiments, on both the energy and precision frontiers, look to identify new physics beyond the Standard Model, we require more precise determinations of fundamental quantities, like the QED and electroweak couplings at various momenta. These can be obtained either entirely from experimental measurements,
or from one such measurement at a particular virtuality combined with
the couplings' virtuality dependence computed within the SM. Thus, a precise, entirely theoretical determination of the running couplings is highly desirable, even more since the preliminary results of the E989 experiment in Fermilab were published.
We give results for the hadronic contribution to the QED running coupling $\alpha(Q^2)$ and weak mixing angle $\sin^2\theta_W(Q^2)$ in the space-like energy region $(0, 7]~\text{GeV}^2$ with a total relative uncertainty of $2\%$ at energies $Q^2 \ll 1~\text{GeV}^2$, and $1\%$ at $Q^2 > 1~\text{GeV}^2$.

Metadata are provided both in "article" format (very similar to INSPIRE) as this helps creating very compact bibliographies which can be beneficial to authors and readers, and in "proceeding" format which is more detailed and complete.
