The production of final state photons in hadronic $Z$-boson decays can be used to study the quark-to-photon fragmentation function $D_{q\to \gamma}(z,\mu_{F})$. Currently, two different observables are used at LEP to probe this function:…

The virtual photon structure function $g_1^{\gamma}(x,Q^2,P^2)$, which can be obtained in polarized $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliding-beam experiments, is investigated for $\Lambda^2 \ll P^2 \ll Q^2$, where $-Q^2$ ($-P^2$) is the mass squared of the…

The symmetries of the Standard Model give rise to the forces that act on particles, and the corresponding force mediators. While the Standard Model is an excellent description of particle interactions, it has known limitations; it is…
