It is known that some high-energy processes have a $t$-channel singularity in the physical region. In this paper we show that this singularity is regularized if one takes into account the finite sizes of the colliding beams, i.e. the…

Coherent bremsstrahlung (CBS) is a sopecific type of radiation at colliders with short bunches. In the present paper we calculate the main characteristic of CBS for the BEPC collider. At this collider $d N_\gamma \sim 3\cdot 10^8 dE_\gamma…

We reexamine the usefulness of fitting blended lightcurve models to microlensing photometric data. We find agreement with previous workers (e.g. Wozniak & Paczynski) that this is a difficult proposition because of the degeneracy of blend…
Cosmological parameter estimation from forthcoming experiments promise to reach much greater precision than current constraints. As statistical errors shrink, the required control over systematic errors increases. Therefore, models or…

The cross section for the reactions of the type $\mu^-\mu^+ \to e\bar\nu_e X$ can not be calculated by the standard methods due to the $t$--channel singularity in the physical region. In this letter we show that accounting for the finite…
This note discusses the matter of probing Beyond the Standard Model physics and how, to succeed in this quest, the interpretations of the Standard Model regarding observed phenomena must be utilized with caution. We give several specific…
We generalize the notion of the Franhoufer diffraction from a single slit and a circular aperture to the case of partially temporal coherent and quasimonochromatic light. The problem is studied analytically and the effect of coherence…
A shape of invariant differential cross section for hadron production as function of transverse momentum is analysed. The systematic analysis of the available data demonstrates a need for a modification of the parameterization traditionally…
We address the problem that the cross section for the collisions of unstable particles diverges, if calculated by standard methods. This problem is considered for beams much smaller than the decay length of the unstable particle, much…
