Correlations among hadrons with the same electric charge produced in Z$^0$ decays are studied using the high statistics data collected from 1991 through 1995 with the OPAL detector at LEP. Normalized factorial cumulants up to fourth order…

Multiple interactions of quarks and gluons in high-energy heavy-ion collisions may give rise to interesting phemomena of color charges propagating in high-density QCD matter. We study the dynamics of multi-parton systems produced in…
We show that the phenomenology of isospin effects on heavy ion reactions at intermediate energies (few AGeV range) is extremely rich and can allow a ``direct'' study of the covariant structure of the isovector interaction in a high density…
Six--jet events via WW pairs, $e^+e^- \ar W^+W^- \ar q_1 \overline{q_1} q_2 \overline{q_2} g g$ are studied at tree level using helicity amplitudes. This is the dominant production mechanism for six--jet final states at Lep II energy. ISR…

We study the possibility to detect heavy physics effects in the interactions of Higgs bosons and the top quark at future colliders using the effective Lagrangian approach. The modification of the interactions may enhance the production of…
At $e^+e^-$ and $ep$ colliders, the large fluxes of almost on-shell photons accompanying the lepton beams lead to the photoproduction of jets. As the centre-of-mass energy is increased, regions of smaller $x$ in the parton densities are…
The hadronic interactions of the photon are studied in terms of new measurements of the total hadronic cross section and di-jet production in photon-photon collisions at LEP2.
An overview of measurements of Bose-Einstein correlations in W-pair events at LEP is given. The results presented are based on data collected at centre-of-mass energies between 172 and 202GeV. The review concentrates on the search for…
The high-energy and high-luminosity data-taking campaigns of the LEP e^+e^- collider provided the four collaborations, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL, with about 50000 W-boson pairs and about a thousand singly-produced W bosons. This unique…
In this review we give a perspective of the theoretical work done recently on the interpretation of results from $B$, $D$, $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_c$ weak decays into final states that contain interacting hadrons, and how it is possible to…
In this review we discuss the observable consequences of in-medium changes of hadronic properties in reactions with elementary probes, and in particular photons, on nuclei. After an outline of the theoretical method used we focus on a…
We analyze the potentiality of the CERN Large Hadron Collider to probe the Higgs boson couplings to the electroweak gauge bosons. We parametrize the possible deviations of these couplings due to new physics in a model independent way, using…

The sources of $W + n$-jet events in hadron collisions are higher-order QCD processes, but also multiple-parton interactions. A subprocess producing a $W + k$-jet final state, followed by one producing $l$ jets in the same nucleon-nucleon…

We discuss the possibility of colour rearrangement in $\ee \to \W^+ \W^- \to \q_1 \qbar_2 \q_3 \qbar_4$ events, i.e.\ that the original colour singlets $\q_1 \qbar_2$ and $\q_3 \qbar_4$ may be transmuted, for instance, into new singlets…
The sensitivity of dilepton production in elementary reactions of photons and pions with nuclei on in-medium changes of hadronic properties is studied. It is shown that this sensitivity is comparable to that encountered in ultrarelativistic…
