The $W$-boson pair production in $e^-e^-$ collisions with polarized beams is investigated. The helicity amplitudes are derived for general couplings and the conditions for a good high-energy behaviour of the cross-section are given. The…
We introduce a new class of effective interactions to be used within the energy-density-functional approaches. They are based on regularized zero-range interactions and constitute a consistent application of the effective-theory methodology…
$W^+ W^-$ production is one of the golden channels for testing the Standard Model as well for searches beyond the Standard Model. We discuss many new subleading processes for inclusive production of $W^+ W^-$ pairs generally not included in…
The main source of \epe pair at $\mu^+\mu^-$ collider is incoherent process $\mu^+\mu^-\to \mu^+\mu^-\epe$ with cross section about 10 mb (at muon energy 2 TeV). The corresponding distributions are discussed briefly. These pairs give the…
Based on a semi-empirical generalized Anderson-Newns model we construct a pseudo-particle description for electron emission due to de-excitation of metastable molecules at surfaces. The pseudo-particle approach allows us to treat resonant…
Unitarity is the fundamental property of the S-matrix while its usage for a scattering of unstable particles has been subtle as unstable particles do not appear in the asymptotic states. Defining unstable-particle amplitudes as residues of…
