We compute the massive gauge and scalar corrections to form factors in both the Sudakov and threshold regimes up to and including two-loop orders. The corrections are calculated for processes involving two external fermions and scalars in…
In order to obtain information about the Standard Model from exclusive hadronic two-body B-decays, we have to quantify non-perturbative QCD effects. Approaches based on the factorization of mass singularities into hadronic distribution…
At energies much larger than the mass of the weak gauge bosons, electroweak radiative corrections can lead to significant corrections. At 1 TeV the one loop corrections can be of ${\cal O} (20 %)$ due to large contributions of the Sudakov…
In perturbation theory the infrared structure of the electroweak interactions produces large corrections proportional to double logarithms log^2 (s/m^2), similar to Sudakov logarithms in QED, when the scale s is much larger than the typical…
Electroweak corrections to longitudinal gauge and Higgs boson scattering amplitudes are calculated. Due to Sudakov double logarithms, the effect is a suppression of amplitude that grows rapidly with increasing center of mass energy leading…
Accounting for the double-logarithmic (DL) contributions to amplitude of Z to f \bar{f} leads to the Sudakov suppression. In contrast, resumming DL contributions to amplitudes of W to f \bar{f}' results into an exponential with a positive…
We develop and discuss in technical detail an infrared-finite factorization and optimized renormalization scheme for calculating exclusive processes, which enables the inclusion of transverse degrees of freedom without entailing suppression…
In processes at the energy much higher than electroweak scale, weak boson mass act as the infrared cutoff in weak boson loops and resulting Sudakov log corrections can be as large as 10%. Since electroweak theory is off-diagonally broken…
The two-loop Sudakov form factor is computed in a U(1) model with a massive gauge boson and a $U(1)\times U(1)$ model with mass gap. We analyze the result in the context of hard and infrared evolution equations and establish a matching…
The off-shell and the on-shell Sudakov form factors in theories with broken gauge symmetry are calculated in the double-logarithmic approximation. We have used different infrared cut-offs, i.e. different mass scales, for virtual photons and…
We investigate the Sudakov double logarithmic corrections to the form factor of fermion in the SU(2)XU(1) electroweak theory. We adopt the familiar Feynman gauge and present explicit calculations at the two loop level. We show that the…
Within a class of superstring vacua which have an additional non-anomalous $U(1)'$ gauge factor, we address the scale of the $U(1)'$ symmetry breaking and constraints on the exotic particle content and their masses. We also show that an…
Two recently proposed concepts to improve the perturbative calculation of exclusive amplitudes, gluonic radiative corrections (Sudakov factor) and confinement size effects (intrinsic transverse momentum) are combined to study the neutron…
The SU(3) breaking effects due to light quark masses on heavy meson masses, decay constants ($F_{D}, F_{D_{s}}$) and the form factor for semileptonic $\overline{B}\rightarrow D^{(\ast)} l\bar{\nu}_{l}$ transitions are formulated in chiral…
A new framework to study electroweak physics at one-loop level in general ${\rm SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y}$ theories is introduced. It separates the 1-loop corrections into two pieces: process specific ones from vertex and box contributions and…
We show that the controversies on the gauge dependence and the infrared singularity emerged in the generalized factorization approach for nonleptonic heavy meson decays within the framework of the operator product expansion can be resolved…
We present a set of example models in which the Standard Model (SM) symmetry group is extended by a new abelian symmetry. This additional symmetry appears anomalous in the effective low-energy theory; however, the anomalies cancel out when…
In this study we incorporate the Sudakov form factor into the dipole factorization formula, where the hard scale of the former is provided by the photon virtuality $Q^2$. We obtain a general formula which we then apply to the well-known GBW…
We recalculate the proton Dirac form factor based on the perturbative QCD factorization theorem which includes Sudakov suppression. The evolution scale of the proton wave functions and the infrared cutoffs for the Sudakov resummation are…
Theories with large mass anomalous dimensions ($\gamma_m$) have been extensively studied because of their deep consequences for models where the scalar bosons are composite. Large $\gamma_m$ values may appear when a non-Abelian gauge theory…
