We consider for the first time the leading large top mass corrections, arising at higher order in electroweak interactions, to the rare decays $K\to\pi\nu\bar\nu$ and the related modes $B\to X_s\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to l^+l^-$. Higher order…

Top quark production in electron-positron annihilation is one of the benchmark reactions at a future linear collider. Both electroweak and QCD corrections are large, amounting to 10% or even more in specific kinematic regions. In this note…

Electroweak (EW) corrections can be enhanced at high energies due to the soft or collinear radiation of virtual and real $W$ and $Z$ bosons that result in Sudakov-like corrections of the form $\alpha_W^l\log^n(Q^2/M_{W,Z}^2)$, where…
The dominant electroweak two-loop corrections to the precision observables M_W and s_w^eff are calculated in the MSSM. They are obtained by evaluating the two-loop Yukawa contributions of O(alpha_t^2), O(alpha_t alpha_b), O(alpha_b^2) to…
