Lattice QCD studies of hadron-hadron interactions are performed by computing the energy levels of the system in a finite box. The shifts in energy levels proportional to inverse powers of the volume are related to scattering parameters in a…

We calculate the one-photon loop radiative corrections to the neutral pion-pair photoproduction process $\pi^-\gamma \to \pi^-\pi^0\pi^0$. At leading order this reaction is governed by the chiral pion-pion interaction. Since the chiral…

We calculate the electroweak corrections of the order $O({m_t^2\over v^2})$ to the QCD production of $t\bar{t}$ pairs via $q+qbar->t+tbar$ at hadron colliders and show that these corrections to the total production rate are small. This…
We consider radiative corrections to false vacuum decay within the framework of quantum mechanics for the general potential of the form 1/2 M q^2 (q-A)(q-B), where M , A and B are arbitrary parameters. For this type of potential we provide…
In this work, we calculate the one-loop contribution to the polarization tensor for photons (and gluons) in the presence of a classical background magnetic field with white-noise stochastic fluctuations. The magnetic field fluctuations are…

We investigate several aspects of chiral symmetry in QCD at a temperature of $T = 128\,\text{MeV}$. The study is based on a $24\times 96^3$ lattice-QCD ensemble with O($a$)-improved Wilson quarks and physical up, down and strange quark…
Analytical calculations of radiative corrections in strong-field QED have hinted that in the presence of an intense plane wave the effective coupling of the theory in the high-energy sector may increase as the $(2/3)$-power of the energy…
In this paper, the versions of quantum electrodynamics (QED) with spinors in fermion equations are briefly examined. In the new variants of the theory, the concept of vacuum polarization is unnecessary. The new content of fermion vacuum…
I review recent estimates of the non-perturbative hadronic vacuum polarization contributions. Since these at present can only be evaluated in terms of experimental data of limited precision, the related uncertainties pose a serious…
We calculate the one-loop QCD corrections for the decay of an off-shell vector boson with vector couplings into two pairs of quarks of equal or unequal flavours keeping all orders in the number of colours. These matrix elements are relevant…
Electroweak, QCD, and QED radiative corrections to the nucleon low-energy coupling constants $g_V$ and $g_A$ are enhanced by large perturbative logarithms between the electroweak and hadronic scale, as well as between the hadronic scale and…
Electromagnetic polarizabilities are important parameters for understanding the interaction between photons and hadrons. For pions these quantities are poorly constrained experimentally since they can only be measured indirectly. New…
I propose to reformulate the gauge field theory as the perturbative deformation of a novel topological quantum field theory. It is shown that this reformulation leads to quark confinement in QCD$_4$. Similarly, the fractional charge…

It is argued that it is valid to use QCD sum rules to determine the scalar and pseudoscalar two-point functions at zero momentum, which in turn determine the ratio of the strange to non-strange quark condensates $R_{su} = \frac{<\bar{s}…
Measurements of electroweak precision observables at future electron-positron colliders, such as the CEPC, FCC-ee, and ILC, will be sensitive to physics at multi-TeV scales. To achieve this sensitivity, precise predictions for the Standard…
