We study the helicity amplitudes of the process \gamma \gamma \to \gamma \gamma at high energy, which in the standard and SUSY models first arise at the one-loop order. In the standard model (SM), the diagrams involve W and charged quark…

The general relation between the standard expansion coefficients and the beta function for the QCD coupling is exactly derived in a mathematically strict way. It is accordingly found that an infinite number of logarithmic terms are lost in…
We compute the four-loop corrections to the Higgs-bottom vertex within massless QCD and present analytic results for all color structures. The infrared poles of the renormalized form factor agree with the predicted four-loop pattern.…
We calculate the two-loop QCD corrections to the production of the neutral supersymmetric Higgs bosons via the gluon fusion mechanism at hadron colliders, including the contributions of squark loops. To a good approximation, these…
We integrate out the Higgs boson in the electroweak standard model at one loop and construct a low-energy effective Lagrangian assuming that the Higgs mass is much larger than the gauge-boson masses. Instead of applying diagrammatical…
The Higgs potential consists of an unexplored territory in which the electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered, and it is moreover directly related to the nature of the electroweak phase transition. Measuring the Higgs boson cubic and…
Effective field theories are useful tools to search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). However, effective theories can lead to non-unitary behavior with fastly growing amplitudes. This unphysical behavior may lead to large…
The QCD analytic running coupling alpha_{an} which has no nonphysical singularities for all Q^2>0 is considered for the initial perturbation theory approximations up to four loop order. The finiteness of the analytic coupling at zero is…
We combine the six-dimensional helicity formalism of Cheung and O'Connell with D-dimensional generalized unitarity to obtain a new formalism for computing one-loop amplitudes in dimensionally regularized QCD. With this procedure, we…
Recently, B. Gerganov, A. LeClair and M. Moriconi [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 (2001) 4753] have proposed an "exact" (all orders) beta-function for 2-dimensional conformal field theories with Kac-Moody current-algebra symmetry at any level k, based…
The proximity effect in hybrid superconducting - normal metal structures is shown to affect strongly the coherent oscillations of the superconducting order parameter $\Delta$ known as the Higgs modes. The standard Higgs mode at the…
The one-loop effective potential for a charged scalar field in de Sitter background is studied. We derive an approximate form for the gauge boson propagator with a general covariant gauge-fixing parameter \xi. This expression is used to…
We consider the finite temperature effective potential of the standard model at the one-loop level in four dimensions by taking account of two kinds of order parameters, the Higgs vacuum expectation value and the zero modes of gauge fields…
The contributions of a second Higgs doublet to the electron electric dipole moment near the heavy Higgs decoupling limit are determined within an effective field theory framework. In models that satisfy the Glashow-Weinberg condition, the…
We compute a subset of three, velocity-independent four-loop (and fourth post-Newtonian) contributions to the harmonic-coordinates effective action of a gravitationally interacting system of two point-masses. We find that, after summing the…
The triviality Higgs mass bound is studied with a higher derivative regulator in the spontaneously broken phase of the four dimensional O(4) symmetric scalar field theory with quartic self-interaction. The phase diagram of the O(4) model is…
In the case of minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), when the pseudoscalar Higgs boson mass is less than the supersymmetry energy scale, the effective theory at the electroweak scale is a two-Higgs-doublet model. We…
The Pomeron loop amplitude and the amplitude for the diagram with any general number of loops is derived in the QCD dipole approach. It was found that the major contribution to the amplitude of an arbitrary Pomeron enhanced diagram, is…
