A novel approach to study electroweak physics at one-loop level in generic ${\rm SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y}$ theories is introduced. It separates the 1-loop corrections into two pieces: process specific ones from vertex and box contributions,…
We consider a two-loop contribution of Higgs-mediated penguin diagram to $B(B_s \to \mu^+\mu^-)$ at large $\tan\beta$ in the MSSM, motivated by a recently proposed two-loop magnetic penguin diagrams by Chen and Geng [1]. Typically the…
We analyze the impact of the recent Feynman-diagrammatic (FD) two-loop results for the mass of the lightest CP-even Higgs boson in the MSSM on the theoretical upper bound for mh as a function of tan(beta). The results are compared with…
We outline the recent results on the two-loop electroweak contributions to the electron-electron scattering cross sections and asymmetries. Although the two-loop corrections are strongly suppressed relative to the one-loop corrections, they…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of two-loop electroweak corrections at energies Q >> M_W, where logarithms of the type ln(Q/M_W) become dominant. The calculation of the leading and next-to-leading logarithmic terms for massless and…

Two-loop electroweak corrections to polarized Moller scattering are studied in two different schemes at low energies. We find the finite $Q^2$ corrections to be well under control. The hadronic and perturbative QCD corrections to the…

The current status of electroweak precision tests after the discovery of the Higgs boson is reviewed, both from a phenomenological and from a theoretical point of view. Predictions for all Z-pole quantities are now available at the complete…

We compute the dominant two-loop electroweak correction, of O(G_F M_t^2), to the partial width of the decay of an intermediate-mass Higgs boson into a pair of photons. We use the asymptotic-expansion technique in order to extract the…
The SUSY-EW one-loop quantum contributions to flavour-changing MSSM Higgs-boson decays into $b \bar s$ and $s \bar b$ are computed and discussed. We use the full diagrammatic approach that is valid for all $\tan \beta$ values and do not…
We study the scheme dependence of the two-loop expression for the $\rho$-parameter of the Standard Model in the heavy $t$-quark mass limit $m_{t} \gg m_{w}$. In the $\ms$-scheme the two-loop electroweak correction to the ${\cal…

A program including all radiative corrections to the MSSM at the same level as the radiative corrections to the SM has been developed and used to perform global fits to all electroweak data from LEP, SLC and the Tevatron and the radiative…
We present the two-loop ${\cal O}(\alpha_sG_Fm_t^2)$ correction to the $b\bar b$ decay rate of the Stan\-dard-Model Higgs boson, assuming that the $t$ quark is much heavier than the Higgs boson. Apart from the universal correction connected…
