We consider the production, at future lepton colliders, of final fermion, sfermion, scalar pairs in SUSY models. For third family fermions and sfermions and for charged Higgses, the leading Yukawa effect at one loop for large c.m. energies…
We analyze the four-fermion reactions e+e- -> 4f containing a single top quark and three other fermions, a possible decay product of the resonant anti-top quark, in the final state. This allows us to estimate the contribution of the…
Double logarithms resummation has been much studied in inclusive as well as exclusive processes. The Sudakov mechanism has often be the crucial tool to exponentiate potentially large contributions to amplitudes or cross-sections near…
We consider electroweak (EW) virtual corrections to $2\to 2$ fermion scattering processes mediated by a vector boson $V$ ($V=W^\pm,Z$) in the pole approximation. As is well known, the computation can be organised into factorisable and…

Electroweak (EW) corrections can be enhanced at high energies due to the soft or collinear radiation of virtual and real $W$ and $Z$ bosons that result in Sudakov-like corrections of the form $\alpha_W^l\log^n(Q^2/M_{W,Z}^2)$, where…
