The resummation for the event-shape variable jet broadening is extended to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy by computing the relevant jet and soft functions at one-loop order and the collinear anomaly to two-loop accuracy. The…
One-loop QED corrections to the differential width of radiative muon decay are considered. Results can be used to analyze high statistics data of modern and future experiments.
We have calculated jet shapes in low $Q^2$ $ep$ and $p\overline{p}$ collisions in perturbation theory at order $\alpha_s^3$ for the hard parton-parton processes. For the $\gamma p$ process resolved and direct contributions are superimposed.…
We discuss how the multi-Regge factorisation of QCD amplitudes can be used in the study of multi-jet processes at colliders. We describe how the next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) BFKL evolution can be combined with energy and momentum…
We calculate the massless quark jet function to three-loop order. The quark jet function is a universal ingredient in SCET factorization for many collider and decay processes with quark initiated final state jets. Our three-loop result…

QED corrections to the $g$ factor of Li-like and B-like ions in a wide range of nuclear charges are presented. Many-electron contributions as well as radiative effects on the one-loop level are calculated. Contributions resulting from the…
Applying the dispersion approach we compute perturbative QCD corrections to the power suppressed soft contribution of $B \to \gamma \ell \nu$ at leading twist. QCD factorization for the $B \to \gamma^{\ast}$ form factors is demonstrated…
The production of identified hadrons inside jets in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation allows for detailed studies of parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions in a clean environment. We compute hadron-in-jets production cross sections for $e^+e^- \to…
We calculate the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to $B$ to scalar meson form factors from QCD light-cone sum rules with $B$ meson light-cone distribution amplitudes. We demonstrate that the $B$ meson-to-vacuum correlation functions…
We have obtained propagators in the position space as an expansion over Landau levels for the charged scalar particle, fermion, and massive vector boson in a constant external magnetic field. The summation terms in the resulting expressions…
A full analytic calculation of the two-loop diagrams contributing to the static potential in QCD is presented in detail. Using a renormalization group improvement, the ``three-loop'' potential in momentum space is thus derived and the third…
The formulae for calculating jet fragmentation momentum, $<j_T^2>$, and parton transverse momentum, $<k_T^2>$, and conditional yield are discussed in two particle correlation framework. Additional corrections are derived to account for the…
We present the first benchmark evaluation of the two-loop finite remainders for the production of a top-quark pair in association with a jet at hadron colliders in the gluon channel. We work in the leading colour approximation, and perform…
We study power corrections to the event shapes in $\e^+\e^--$annihilation in the two jets kinematical region, $e\ll 1$. We argue that for $e \sim \Lambda_{QCD}/Q$ all power corrections of the form $1/\lr{Qe}^n$ have to be taken into account…
We present the two-loop virtual QCD corrections to the scattering of massless distinct quarks in conventional dimensional regularisation. The structure of the infrared divergences agrees with that predicted by Catani while expressions for…
The QCD predictions for single-inclusive jet production are computed with joint resummation of threshold and jet radius logarithms. The results are compared to those based on fixed order perturbation theory up to next-to-next-to-leading…

We exploit a recent computation of one graviton loop corrections to the self-mass [1] to quantum-correct the field equation for a massless, conformally coupled scalar on a de Sitter background. With the obvious choice for the finite part of…
We derive the leading quantum corrections to the gravitational potentials in a de Sitter background, due to the vacuum polarization from loops of conformal fields. Our results are valid for arbitrary conformal theories, even strongly…
