The leading electroweak MSSM two-loop corrections to the electroweak precision observables are calculated. They are obtained by evaluating the two-loop O(\alpha_t^2), O(\alpha_t \alpha_b), O(\alpha_b^2) contributions to the quantity…
We consider the electroweak radiative corrections in the MSSM and study the purely Yukawa contributions ${\cal O}(\alpha^L y_t^{2p} y_b^{2q})$, $p+q=L$, where $y_{t,b}$ are the top and bottom quark Yukawa couplings. We show that these…
Heavy squark decays into top and charginos or neutralinos could be an unexpected source of top quarks at hadron colliders. A detailed treatment of these processes is necessary for a reliable calculation of both the top quark production…

Masses of heavy Standard Model fermions (top-quark, bottom-quark, and tau-lepton) play an important role in the analysis of theories beyond the SM. They serve as low-energy input and reduce the parameter space of such theories. In this…
