We compute the virtual next-to-leading corrections to the impact factors or off-shell coefficient functions in the high-energy limit. When combined with the known real corrections, these results will provide the complete NLO corrections to…
We calculate the complete ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ corrections to the quark decay $b\to ccs$ taking full account of the quark masses, but neglecting penguin contributions. For a c to the b quark mass ratio $m_c/m_b= 0.3$ and a strange quark…

We demonstrate that the ambiguity of the low-x evolution kernels in the next-to-leading order (NLO) permits one to match the Mobius form of the BFKL kernel and the kernel of the colour dipole model and to construct the Mobius invariant NLO…
We study parametrization of polarized parton distribution functions in the \alpha_s leading order (LO) and in the next-to-leading order (NLO). From \chi^2 fitting to the experimental data on A_1, optimum polarized distribution functions are…
Leptoquarks provide viable solutions to the flavour anomalies, i.e. they can explain the tensions between the measurements and the Standard Model predictions of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon as well as $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ and…
The high-energy behaviour of the total cross section for highly virtual photons, as predicted by the BFKL equation at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD, is presented. The NLO BFKL predictions, improved by the BLM optimal scale setting, are…
I consider the next-to-leading,high-energy cluster expansion of large-k double-jet production in QCD, and I determine the corresponding one-loop quark and gluon impact factors, for a self-consistent energy scale. The result shows that…
In this paper we take the first step towards a complete next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) calculation of the inclusive decay rate for $B \to X_s\gamma$. We consider the virtual corrections of order $\alphas^2 n_f$ to the matrix…
By incorporating the available leading-power results at $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ and next-to-leading-power corrections at tree level, we improve the precision of the theoretical predictions for $B\to\pi$ form factors to the…
We show that a unified approach to the perturbative evolution of structure functions which sums all logarithms of Q^2 and 1/x at leading and next-to-leading order yields results in full agreement with the 1993 HERA data for F_2. This makes…
