Abstract
In this thesis, I define and investigate some questions about Tamagawa measures and Tamagawa numbers of smooth connected group schemes over global fields beyond the traditional affine and projective cases. In particular, over number fields, for every (smooth) connected group scheme I construct certain extensions by a split torus and prove a formula for the Tamagawa number of such extensions when either the initial group scheme is commutative or the map from each pure inner twist to the maximal abelian variety quotient is surjective on local points at each real place.
