We calculate one-loop renormalization factors of generic DeltaS=2 four-quark operators for domain-wall QCD with the plaquette gauge action and the Iwasaki gauge action. The renormalization factors are presented in the modified minimal…
I briefly review some recent results on soft-gluon resummation and present applications to heavy-quark and jet production in hadron collisions.

The development of a Modified Perturbation Theory for QCD, introduced in previous works, is continued. The gluon propagator is modified as consequence of a soft gluon pairs condensate in the vacuum. The modified Feynman rules for $\alpha=1$…

I examine the determination of the QCD color factor ratio CA/CF from the scale evolution of particle multiplicity in e+e- three jet events. I fit an analytic expression for the multiplicity in three jet events to event samples generated…

Light quark masses are computed for Kogut-Susskind fermions by evaluating non-perturbatively the renormalization factor for bilinear quark operators. Calculations are carried out in the quenched approximation at \beta=6.0, 6.2, and 6.4. For…
We estimate the number of quark jets in QCD multi-jet final states at hadron colliders. In the estimation, we develop the calculation of jet rates into that of quark jet rates. From the calculation, we estimate the improvement on the…
The contributions to the coefficient functions of the quark and the mixed quark-gluon condensate to mesonic correlators are calculated for the first time to all orders in the quark masses, and to lowest order in the strong coupling…
We study the two-body decays of the gluino at full one-loop level in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with quark-flavour violation (QFV) in the squark sector. The renormalization is done in the DRbar scheme and hard gluon and…
We compared the multiplicities of pizero, eta, Kzero and of charged particles in quark and gluon jets in 3-jet events, as measured by the OPAL experiment at LEP. The comparisons were performed for distributions unfolded to 100% pure quark…
We study soft-gluon radiation for heavy quark production in charged-current Deep Inelastic Scattering processes. We resum large-x contributions to the MSbar coefficient function to next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy and present results…
The use of MS-like renormalization schemes in QCD requires an implementation of nontrivial matching conditions across thresholds, a fact often overlooked in the literature. We shortly review the use of these matching conditions in QCD and…
We present preliminary results on the computation of the QCD running coupling constant in the $\widetilde{MOM}$ scheme and Landau gauge with two flavours of dynamical Wilson quarks. Gluon momenta range up to about 7 GeV ($\beta =$ 5.6, 5.8…
It has been recently found that the heavy quark-antiquark QQbar pair multiplicity, in certain phase space region (QQbar at short distance, soft and with small velocity), satisfies an evolution equation formally similar to the BFKL equation…
We study quark and gluon jets separately using public collider data from the CMS experiment. Our analysis is based on 2.3/fb of proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV, collected at the Large Hadron Collider in 2011. We define two non-overlapping…
In this paper, we present one- and two-loop results for the renormalization of the gluon and quark gauge-invariant operators which appear in the definition of the QCD energy-momentum tensor, in dimensional regularization. To this end, we…
Reaching a theoretical accuracy in the prediction of the lightest MSSM Higgs-boson mass, M_h, at the level of the current experimental precision requires the inclusion of momentum-dependent contributions at the two-loop level. Recently two…
Some problems of the perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) jet calculus are discussed. The first one is related to the terminology of the order of calculation. Due to cancelation of LO and NLO terms in the ratio of mean multiplicities…
