When technicolor (TC), QCD, extended technicolor (ETC) and other interactions become coupled through their different Schwinger-Dyson equations, the solution of these equations are modified compared to those of the isolated equations. The…
One-loop corrections to the $Z^{\prime}$ decay width are derived and analyzed in the framework of the general form of the 3-3-1 models. We identify two important sources of corrections: oblique corrections asociated to the $Z^{\prime}$…

We study the radiative corrections of the noncommutative QED at the one-loop level. A correction of the magnetic dipole moment due to the noncommutativity are evaluated. As in the ordinary QED, IR divergence is shown to vanish when we…
QCD corrections to the electroweak cross section of $\gamma\gamma\to ZZ$ at high energies and small scattering angles have been calculated. The dominant contributions are due to $t$-channel gluon exchange, i.e. photons dissociate into…
Radiative corrections to electroweak parameters in technicolor theories may be evaluated by one of two techniques: either one estimates spectral function integrals using scaled QCD data, or one uses naive dimensional analysis with a chiral…
We calculate the electroweak and QCD corrections to W-W+ -> tt and ZZ -> tt. We also consider the interplay of these corrections with the effect of anomalous interactions that affect the massive weak bosons and the top. The results at the…
Radiative corrections to elastic scattering represent an important part of the interpretation of electron-induced nuclear reactions at small energy transfers, where they make for a dominant part of background. Here we present and validate a…
We consider radiative corrections to polarization observables in elastic electron-proton scattering, in particular, for the polarization transfer measurements of the proton form factor ratio $\mu G_E/G_M$. The corrections are of two types:…
Precision electroweak measurements have been claimed to eliminate almost all models of technicolor. We show that the assumptions made to calculate the oblique parameters $S$,$T$,$U$ apply to QCD--like technicolor models which were ruled out…
We construct extended technicolor (ETC) models that can produce the large splitting between the masses of the $t$ and $b$ quarks without necessarily excessive contributions to the $\rho$ parameter or to neutral flavor-changing processes.…
We use an effective operator framework to study the contributions to the Tevatron t tbar asymmetry from arbitrary vector bosons and scalars, and compare with their effect on the t tbar tail at LHC. Our study shows, for example, that models…
I give a basic introduction to precision electroweak analysis, beginning with calculation at tree-level which most simply illustrates the procedure. I then work out the formalism for one-loop corrections to the vector boson self energies…
As shown in earlier work (Ahlers et al., J. Fluid Mech. 569, p.409 (2006)), non-Oberbeck Boussinesq (NOB) corrections to the center temperature in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection in water and also in glycerol are governed by the…
The oblique part of the radiative corrections to the Left-Right model is described. The leading non-logarithmic terms are explicitly written. It is argued, on the basis of a comparison with the Standard Model, that one cannot use the loop…
Technicolor achieves electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) in an elegant and natural way, while it suffers from severe model building difficulties. I propose to abandon its secondary goal to eliminate scalar bosons in exchange of solving…
We study one loop electroweak corrections to the production of a pair of charged Higgs bosons through an intermediate $Z$-boson or photon. In particular, we consider the effects of graphs with top and bottom quarks and squarks in the loop…
