In this work we study the axion/axion-like particle production from the lepton-nucleon scattering in the low-energy region, i.e., the $\ell N\to \ell N a$ processes, $\ell$ being the electron or muon and $N$ the proton or neutron. We…
An adequate description of the neutral-current Drell-Yan process at the Tevatron and the LHC, in particular, requires the inclusion of electroweak radiative corrections. We extend earlier work in this direction in various ways. First, we…
We show that the radiative corrections to charged current (CC) nuclear reactions with an electron(positron) in the final state are described by a universal function. The consistency of our treatment of the radiative corrections with the…
