We complete the QCD sum rule analysis of the Isgur Wise form factor $\xi(v\cdot v')$ at next-to-leading order in renormalization-group improved perturbation theory. To this end, the exact result for the two-loop corrections to the…
We compute the pole mass of the gluon in QCD from the local composite operator formalism at two loops in the MSbar renormalization scheme. For Yang-Mills theory an estimate of the mass at two loops is 2.13 Lambda_MSbar.
We apply gauge/gravity duality to compute $1/N^2_c$ corrections to the heavy quark potentials of a quark--anti-quark pair ($Q\bar Q$) and of a quark--quark pair ($QQ$) immersed into the strongly coupled N = 4 SYM plasma. On the gravity side…
We calculate supersymmetric QCD corrections (squark/gluino loops) to quark pair production in e+ e- annihilation, allowing for mixing between left- and right-handed squarks and taking into account the effects of nonzero quark masses.…

The pole mass of the gluino is diagrammatically calculated to the two-loop order in SUSY QCD as a function of the running parameters in the lagrangian, for the gluino and squarks sufficiently heavier than the quarks. The O(alpha_s^2)…
One loop corrections to the coupling of the reggeized gluon to quarks are calculated in QCD. Combining this result with the known corrections to the gluon-gluon-reggeon vertex, we check the self-consistency of the representation of the…
We study the integrability properties of planar N=2 superconformal field theories in four dimensions. We show that the spin chain associated to the planar dilation operator of N=2 superconformal QCD fails to be integrable at two loops. In…
We evaluate the fermionic two-loop QCD corrections to the heavy-quark pair production process in the quark-antiquark channel. We obtain analytic results which are valid for any value of the Mandelstam invariants s and t, and of the heavy…
We propose to resum exactly any number of one-loop vacuum polarization insertions into the scale of the coupling of lowest order radiative corrections. This makes maximal use of the information contained in one-loop perturbative corrections…
