We consider the transverse-momentum ($q_T$) distribution of $Z$ bosons produced in hadronic collisions. At small values of $q_T$, we perform the analytic resummation of the logarithmically enhanced QED contributions up to next-to-leading…
We calculate the quantum corrections of the thermodynamic quantities of a system of confined Bosons at finite temperature. Systematically quantum corrections are written in a series of $\hbar$, which is convergent when $kT$ is much larger…

We calculate the electroweak and QCD corrections to W-W+ -> tt and ZZ -> tt. We also consider the interplay of these corrections with the effect of anomalous interactions that affect the massive weak bosons and the top. The results at the…
We review the salient features of next-to-leading-order QCD and electroweak corrections to the scattering of two and the production of three weak gauge bosons at the Large Hadron Collider. Results for the tower of $O(\alpha_s^m\alpha^n)$…
Recently a slight tension between data and predictions has been reported in $t\bar{t}W$ production by both the CMS and ATLAS collaborations. We revisit the theoretical predictions for this process, focussing on the following two effects. We…
Baym, Blaizot, and Zinn-Justin have recently used the large N approximation to calculate the effect of interactions on the transition temperature of dilute Bose gases. We extend their calculation to next-to-leading-order in 1/N and find a…
We find third-power nonlinear corrections to the Coulomb and other static electric fields, as well as to the electric and magnetic dipole fields, as we work within QED with no background field. The nonlinear response function we base our…

We discuss the effects of QCD corrections to the on-shell decay $t \to b W$. We resolve the scale ambiguity using the Brodsky-Lepage-Mackenzie scheme, and find that the appropriate coupling constant is $\alpha_{s}^{ \overline{MS}}…
The contribution to the binding energy of a two-body system due to the crossed two-boson exchange contribution is calculated, using the Bethe-Salpeter equation. This is done for distinguishable, scalar particles interacting via the exchange…
The next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections to $pp\to l^+l^-/\bar\nu\nu+\gamma+X$ production, including all off-shell effects of intermediate Z bosons in the complex-mass scheme, are calculated for LHC energies, revealing the…
