We remark that the precision of recent determinations of $\alpha_s(M^2_Z)$ is such that one can get bounds on supersymmetric partner masses (squark and gluino) by requiring consistency of determinations of $\alpha_s$ at "low" energies,…

The leading electroweak MSSM two-loop corrections to the $\rho$-parameter are calculated. They are obtained by evaluating the two-loop self-energies of the Z and the W boson at O(Gf^2 m_t^4) in the limit of heavy scalar quarks. A very…
The partial decay rate $\Gamma(Z\to b\bar{b})$ is significantly influenced by the mass of the top quark due to electroweak radiative corrections. The leading $\sim m_t^2$ and the next-to-leading contribution $\sim \ln m_t^2$ are known to be…
We compute QCD radiative corrections to the continuum production of a pair of Z-bosons in the annihilation of two gluons. We only consider the contribution of the top quark loops and we treat them assuming that $m_t$ is much larger than any…
We study the impact of large trilinear R-parity violating couplings on the lightest CP-even Higgs boson mass in supersymmetric models. We use the publicly available computer codes SARAH and SPheno to compute the leading two-loop…
