A Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range is considered. An effective Lagrangian approach is used in order to evaluate the top-induced QCD corrections of order $\alpha_s^3$ to the decay into light quarks and $O(\alpha_s^4)$ corrections…
Two-loop QED corrections to the decay rate of parapositronium (p-Ps) into two photons are presented. We find Gamma(p-Ps --> 2 photons) = 7989.64(2)/microsec. The non-logarithmic O(alpha^2) corrections turn out to be small, contrary to some…
I review recent progress on the Higgs production in gamma gamma collisions at the photon mode of the Next Linear Collider (NLC). I mainly focus on two particular topics. The first topic is the Higgs-two photon vertex, which is sensitive to…
The presence of a new singlet scalar particle a can open up new decay channels for the Higgs boson, through cascades of the form h -> 2a -> X, possibly making discovery through standard model channels impossible. If a is CP-odd, its decay…
Theoretical predictions for the branching ratios of the $B \rightarrow X_s\,\gamma$ and $B \rightarrow K^*\,\gamma$ decays are calculated in the Standard Model and in the (type II) two-Higgs-doublet model. Both the complete leading and the…

We present the two-loop ${\cal O}(\alpha_sG_Fm_t^2)$ correction to the $b\bar b$ decay rate of the Stan\-dard-Model Higgs boson, assuming that the $t$ quark is much heavier than the Higgs boson. Apart from the universal correction connected…
We study the two photon decay channel of the Standard Model-like component of the CP-even Higgs bosons present in the type II Seesaw Model. The corresponding cross-section is found to be significantly enhanced in parts of the parameter…

We calculate next-to-leading QCD corrections to the decay $H^+ \to u\bar d$ for generic up and down quarks in the final state. A recently developed algorithm for evaluation of massive two-loop Feynman diagrams is employed to calculate…
The one-loop calculation of the amplitude for the Higgs decay H-->\gamma\gamma\ due to virtual W's in the unitary gauge is presented. As the Higgs does not directly couple to the massless photons, the one-loop amplitude is finite. The…
In this paper we address the potential of a 3 TeV center-of-mass energy Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) to measure the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson decay to two photons. Since photons are massless, they are not coupled to the Higgs boson…
