I present some recent results on neutral pion photo- and electroproduction in the threshold region and discuss the low energy theorem for $E_{0+}$ and some novel ones for the $P$-waves. I also study the two-pion production process $\gamma N…
Within the resonance chiral theory, we have studied the process of a tau lepton decaying into a vector resonance plus a pseudo-Goldstone meson and a tau neutrino. Two kinds of processes are discussed: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi…
BHAGEN-1PH is a FORTRAN program providing fast Monte Carlo event generation of the process $e^+ e^- \to e^+ e^- \gamma$, within electroweak theory, for both unpolarized beams and also for the longitudinally polarized electron beam. The…
We consider exclusive $pp \to pp \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $pp \to pp \pi^{+} \pi^{-}\pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ reactions at high energies. The calculation is based on a tensor pomeron model and the amplitudes for the processes are formulated in an…

The electron positron annihilation reaction into four pion production has been studied, through the channel $e^++e^-\to \bar \rho+\rho $. The differential (and total) cross sections and various polarization observables for this reaction…
During the last 15 years the Radio MonteCarLow Working Group has been providing valuable support to the development of radiative corrections and Monte Carlo event generators for low energy $e^+e^-$ data and $\tau$-lepton decays. While the…
We present the Monte Carlo generator tuning strategy followed, and the tools developed, by the MCnet CEDAR project. We also present new tuning results for the Pythia 6.4 event generator which are based on event shape and hadronisation…
The most commonly employed formalisms of radiative energy loss have been derived in the high- energy approximation. In its present form, it is reliable only for the medium modifications of inclusive particle spectra. Modifications to this…
