The threshold behaviour of the cross section sigma(e+e+ -> tau+tau-) is analysed, taking into account the known higher-order corrections. At present, this observable can be determined to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in a combined…
We analyse the subleading non-resonant contributions to the e+ e- -> W+ W- b bbar cross section at energies near the top-antitop threshold. These correspond to next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) corrections with respect to the…
The cross section of the $e^+e^-\to\omega\pi^0\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ reaction was measured by the SND detector at VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider in the energy range from threshold up to 1.4 GeV. Results of the cross section fitting by the sum of…
In this paper, we investigate a transition from an elastica to a piece-wised elastica whose connected point defines the hinge angle $\phi_0$; we refer the piece-wised elastica $\Lambda_{\phi_0}$-elastica or $\Lambda$-elastica. The…
The cross section for process $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-\gamma$ in the framework of noncommutative quantum electrodynamics(NC QED) is studied. It is shown that the NC correction of scattering sections is not monotonous enhancement with total…

Elastic scattering data for $^{141}$Pr($\alpha$,$\alpha$)$^{141}$Pr have been analyzed to derive a new energy-dependent local potential for the $^{141}$Pr-$\alpha$ system. This potential is used successfully to predict the cross section of…
A four-body calculation of the $pn\Lambda\Lambda$ bound state, $^{\ 4}_{\Lambda\Lambda}$H, is performed using the stochastic variational method and phenomenological potentials. The $NN$, $\Lambda N$, and $\Lambda\Lambda$ potentials are…
We show that the Supernovae results, implying evidence for an accelerating Universe, may be closely related to the recent discovery of redshift dependence in the fine structure constant $\alpha$. The link is a class of varying speed of…
We review recent experimental and theoretical results for the electromagnetic form factors of hyperons (Y) in the timelike region, accessible in the reactions $e^+e^-\to \bar YY$. Specifically, we focus on the final states $\bar…

We report a measurement of exclusive $e^+e^-\to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ cross sections as a function of center-of-mass energy near $D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ threshold with initial-state radiation. The analysis is based on a data sample…
The e+e- -> pi+pi-pi+pi- cross section has been measured using 5.8/pb of integrated luminosity collected with the CMD-2 detector at the VEPP-2M collider. Analysis of the data with a refined efficiency determination and use of both three-…
We report the first measurement of the exclusive cross sections $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}$, $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}^*$, and $e^+e^-\to B^*\bar{B}^*$ in the energy range from 10.63 GeV to 11.02 GeV. The $B$ mesons are fully reconstructed in a large…
One of the most compelling goals of observational cosmology is the characterisation of the properties of the dark energy component thought to be responsible for the recent acceleration of the universe, including its possible dynamics. In…
It has recently been shown that a simple empirical formula, in terms of the mass number and the valence nucleon numbers, is able to describe the main trends of the lowest excitation energies of the natural parity even multipole states up to…
We discuss the possibility of explaining the excess in the cross section at high-Q^2 recently found at HERA in terms of four-fermion effective interactions. To avoid the constraints from low-energy data, we select three special cases in…
We report measurements of the exclusive cross section for $e^+e^- \to D \bar D $, where $D=D^0$ or $D^+$, in the center-of-mass energy range from the $D \bar D $ threshold to $5\mathrm{GeV}/c^2$ with initial-state radiation. The analysis is…
Everpresent $\Lambda$ is a cosmological scenario in which the observed cosmological "constant" $\Lambda$ fluctuates between positive and negative values with a vanishing mean, and with a magnitude comparable to the critical density at any…
