We describe the impact of the full one-loop electroweak terms of O(alpha_s alpha_EM^3) entering the electron-positron into three-jet cross-section from sqrt(s)=M_Z to TeV scale energies. We include both factorisable and non-factorisable…
The thermal relic abundance of Dark Matter motivates the existence of new electroweak scale particles, independent of naturalness considerations. However, most unnatural Dark Matter models do not ensure the presence of new particles charged…
Recently, it has been suggested that the spectrum of physical states in the Standard Model may include an ultralight pseudo-scalar, denoted by $\eta_{\rm w}$, in analogy with the $\eta'$ state arising from the strong interactions. We find…
Future lepton colliders will provide a powerful tool for making precision experiments at energies that will range typically between 500 GeV and 2 TeV. At such high energies, one loop electroweak corrections are bigger than one could naively…

We investigate an extension of the Standard Model (SM) with two candidates for dark matter (DM). One of them is a real scalar field and the other is an Abelian gauge field. Except for these two, there is another beyond SM field which has…
Within the framework of the MSSM, we compute the electroweak one-loop supersymmetric quantum corrections to the width $\Gamma (t\rightarrow W^{+}\, b)$ of the canonical main decay of the top quark. The results are presented in two on-shell…
The measurement of Standard Model processes tests the validity of the model at a given scale and is simultaneously sensitive to new physics through loop effects or interference with the Standard Model amplitudes. A variety of studies has…
TeV-scale dark matter is well motivated by notions of naturalness as the new physics threshold is expected to emerge in the TeV regime. We extend the Standard Model by adding an arbitrary SU(2) dark matter multiplet in non-chiral…
In this letter, we consider a class of scenarios in which the dark matter is part of a heavy hidden sector that is thermally decoupled from the Standard Model in the early universe. The dark matter freezes-out by annihilating to a lighter,…
We present the complete electroweak one-loop corrections to top-pair production at a linear e^+e^- collider in the continuum region. Besides weak and photonic virtual corrections, real hard bremsstrahlung with simple realistic kinematical…
We present a global fit to electroweak precision observables (EWPOs) in dark photon (DP) models containing both kinetic and mass mixing between the DP and the neutral gauge bosons of the Standard Model (SM). Such more general mixing can be…

The cross-section for $\gamma\gamma\to t \bar t$ with arbitrary polarized photons is calculated within the electroweak Standard Model including the complete virtual and soft-photonic $O(\alpha)$ corrections. We present a detailed numerical…
Nearly conformal dynamics at the TeV scale as motivated by the hierarchy problem can be characterized by a stage of significant supercooling at the electroweak epoch. This has important cosmological consequences. In particular, a common…

A massive real scalar dark matter particle $S$ can couple to Standard Model leptons or quarks through a vector-like fermionic mediator $\psi$, a scenario known as the Vector-like portal. Due to helicity suppression of the annihilation cross…
We revisit the Standard Model fit to electroweak precision observables in using the latest data and the Particle Data Group (PDG) measurement of the W boson mass. The analysis is then repeated in light of the new W boson mass measurement…
We show the impact of the electroweak, and in one instance the QCD, one-loop corrections on the relic density of dark matter in the MSSM which is provided by the lightest neutralino. We cover here some of the most important scenarii:…
Analytic results for the next-to-leading order electroweak radiative corrections to the decay of the polarised $W$ boson into a pair of heavy quarks are presented. Finite fermion masses are taken into account throughout this calculation,…
