QCD corrections are evaluated to FCNC processes like $B \to X_s \nu \bar{\nu}$, $K \to \pi \nu \bar{\nu}$, $B \to l^+ l^-$ or $K_L \to \mu^+ \mu^-$, i.e. to processes mediated by effective operators containing neutrino currents or axial…

Leptoquarks (LQs) provide very promising solutions to the tensions between the experimental measurements and the SM predictions of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ and $b\to c\tau\nu$ processes. In this case the LQ masses are in general at the TeV…
The two--loop ${\cal O}(\alpha_s G_F m_t^2)$ corrections to the $b\bar b$ decay rate of the Standard Model Higgs boson as well as its production via $e^+e^- \to ZH$ will be presented. These QCD corrections are obtained by using a low-energy…
