We study the exclusive double-photon annihilation processes, $e^+ e^- \to \gamma \gamma^\ast\to \gamma V^0$ and $e^+ e^- \to \gamma^\ast \gamma^\ast \to V^0_a V^0_b,$ where the $V^0_i$ is a neutral vector meson produced in the forward…
In this paper, we focus on the role of power corrections in QCD factorization(QCDF) method in charmless two-body nonleptonic $B$ meson decays. We use the ratio of the branching fraction of $B^+ \to \pi^+ K^{\ast 0}$ to that of $B^0 \to…

We discuss $1/Q$ corrections to hard processes in QCD where $Q$ is a large mass parameter like the total energy in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. The main problem we address ourselves to is whether these corrections to different processes…

Rare decays of B mesons, such as B \to K^*\gamma and B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^- are loop suppressed in the Standard Model and sensitive to new physics. The final state meson in heavy-light decays at large recoil has sizeable momentum in the…
We calculate the second-order QCD corrections to the forward-backward asymmetry in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. Using the quark axis definition, we do not agree with either existing calculation, but the difference relative to one of them is small…

For energies relevant to future linear colliders, $\sqrt{s} \gsim 500$ GeV, the WW fusion channel dominates the Higgs boson production cross section $e^+ e^- \to \bar{\nu} \nu h^0$. We have calculated the one-loop corrections to this…
