Two loop electroweak corrections to b --> s gamma decays are computed. Fermion and photonic loop effects are found to reduce R = BR(b --> s gamma)/BR(b --> c e nu) by 8+-2% and lead to the standard model prediction BR(B --> X_s gamma)=(3.28…
New heavy particles in an SU(2)_L multiplet, sometimes introduced in extensions of the standard model, have highly degenerate tree-level mass M if their couplings to the Higgs bosons are very small or forbidden. However, loop corrections…

We consider electroweak (EW) virtual corrections to $2\to 2$ fermion scattering processes mediated by a vector boson $V$ ($V=W^\pm,Z$) in the pole approximation. As is well known, the computation can be organised into factorisable and…
