We develop a framework combining the higher-twist formalism of exclusive processes in the $s$ channel with the semi-classical effective description of small-$x$ physics in the $t$ channel. We apply it to transversely polarized light vector…
We classify the possible deviations from the Standard Model in the QED-dominated $\mathrm{e^+e^-}\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ process under the assumption of a preserved $SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ symmetry. We find that the only deviations really…
Single top quark cross section evaluations for the complete sets of tree-level diagrams in the $e^+ e^-$, $e^- e^-$, $\gamma e$ and $\gamma \gamma$ modes of the next linear collider with unpolarized and polarized beams are performed within…
I review recent progress on exclusive $B$ meson decays made in the perturbative QCD approach, concentrating on the evolution of the $B$ meson wave function in $k_T$ factorization, radiative decays, polarizations in $VV$ modes, and new…
A selected set of topics along the borderline between perturbative and nonperturbative QCD in exclusive reactions are studied. Specific problems, related to different mechanisms of momentum transfer to an intact hadron, are discussed.…
Exclusive hadronic B-meson decays into two-body final states consisting of a light pseudoscalar or vector meson along with an eta or eta' meson are of great phenomenological interest. Their theoretical analysis involves decay mechanisms…
We show in detail that the $k_T$-factorization for exclusive processes is gauge-dependent and inconsistent.
The cross sections for the reactions $e^+e^- \to \phi\eta, \quad \phi\eta', \quad \rho\eta, \quad \rho\eta'$ have been measured using a data sample of 516 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$…
As one of the simplest hadronic processes, $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow M^{+}M^{-}$ ($M=\pi,K$) could be a good testing ground for our understanding of the perturbative and nonperturbative structure of QCD, and will be studied with high…
We include $p p \to p \Delta^{+} \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ and $p p \to \Delta^{+} \Delta^{+} \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ processes in addition to the standard $p p \to p p \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ process both in equivalent-photon approximation (EPA) and in exact $2…
Currently, the long-standing issue concerning the size of the gluonic content of the eta' and eta mesons remains unsettled. With this in mind we consider the central exclusive production (CEP) of eta', eta meson pairs in the perturbative…
It has been suggested in Ref. [A. E. Bondar and V. L. Chernyak, Phys. Lett. B 612, 215 (2005)] that the disagreement between theoretical calculations and experimental observations for the rate for the process e+ e- -> J/psi + eta_c at the B…
The $^{1}$H($e,e^\prime \pi^+$)n cross section was measured for a range of four-momentum transfer up to $Q^2$=3.91 GeV$^2$ at values of the invariant mass, $W$, above the resonance region. The $Q^2$-dependence of the longitudinal component…
We analyze the exclusive charmonium $J/\psi+\eta_c$ pair production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation using the nonfactorized perturbative QCD and the light-front quark model(LFQM) that goes beyond the peaking approximation. We effectively include…
We study exclusive production of scalar $\chi_{c0}\equiv \chi_c(0^{++})$ and pseudoscalar $\eta_c$ charmonia states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC energies. The amplitudes for $gg \to \chi_{c0}$ as well as for $gg \to \eta_c$…
We investigate two exclusive processes, e+ e- -> eta_c + gamma and e+ e- -> J/psi + J/psi, at the center-of-momentum energy sqrt{s}=10.58 GeV within the framework of the nonrelativistic QCD factorization approach. A class of relativistic…
Quarkonia production in different high-energy processes has recently been proposed in order to probe gluon transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution and fragmentation functions (TMDs in general). However, no proper factorization…
We compute the inclusive unpolarized dihadron production cross section in the far from back-to-back region of $e^+ e^-$ annihilation in leading order pQCD using existing fragmentation function fits and standard collinear factorization,…
In the latest years the theoretical and phenomenological advances in the factorization of several collider processes using the transverse momentum dependent distributions (TMD)has greatly increased. I attempt here a short resume of the…
We discuss the exclusive photoproduction of a photon-meson pair with large $ p_{T} $ as a channel to probe generalised parton distributions (GPDs). Like other $ 2\to3 $ exclusive processes, this channel allows us to better study the $ x…
