We present a full one-loop calculation of the electroweak corrections to the partial decay widths of the fermionic modes of sfermions \Gamma(\sfermion \to f'\chi). The main technical points of the renormalization are presented, and the main…
Renormalization conditions imposed on quark bilinear vertex functions in the conventional RI/MOM scheme use exceptional momentum configurations. With practical values for the lattice cutoff, these vertex functions are contaminated with…

We review two recently proposed on-shell schemes for the renormalization of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix in the Standard Model. One first constructs gauge-independent mass counterterm matrices for the up- and…

We study the decays of top squarks and bottom squarks in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters A_t, A_b and mu. In a large region of the supersymmetric parameter space the branching ratios of stop_1 and sbottom_1…

Renormalization of composite three-quark operators in dimensional regularization is complicated by the mixing of physical and unphysical (evanescent) operators. This mixing must be taken into account in a consistent subtraction scheme. In…
We analyze the partial decay widths of sfermions decaying into charginos and neutralinos \Gamma(\sfermion -> f'\chi) at the one-loop level. We present the renormalization framework, and discuss the value of the corrections for top- and…
We report on the results of a phenomenological study of top squarks (stop_{1,2}) and bottom squarks (sbottom_{1,2}) in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with complex parameters A_t, A_b, mu and M_1. In particular we focus on…
Starting from the QCD Schroedinger functional (SF), we define a family of renormalization schemes for two four-quark operators, which are, in the chiral limit, protected against mixing with other operators. With the appropriate flavour…
We present the full $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ supersymmetric QCD corrections for gaugino annihilation and co-annihilation into light and heavy quarks in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We demonstrate that these channels are…

We discuss the matching conditions and renormalization group evolution of non-relativistic QCD. A variant of the conventional MS-bar scheme is proposed in which a subtraction velocity nu is used rather than a subtraction scale mu. We derive…
We evaluate two-body decay modes of charginos in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters (cMSSM). Assuming heavy scalar quarks we take into account all decay channels involving charginos, neutralinos, (scalar)…
Non-minimal renormalisation schemes such as the momentum subtraction scheme (MOM) have frequently been used for physical computations. The consistency of such a scheme relies on the existence of a coupling redefinition linking it to MSbar.…
