We calculate radiative corrections to the masses of the Higgs bosons in a minimal supersymmetric model that contains an additional non-anomalous (U(1)') gauge symmetry. With some fine-tuning of the (U(1)') charges of the Higgs fields, it is…
We revisit the renormalisation of models with two U(1) gauge symmetries, in a formulation with non-canonical gauge kinetic terms which is covariant under field reparametrisations among the two gauge bosons. This approach is convenient to…
We study one loop supersymmetric corrections to precision observables. Adding LEP2 e ebar --> f fbar cross sections to the data-set removes previous hints for SUSY and the resulting constraints are in some cases stronger than direct bounds…

The lowest-order expression for the partial $W$ width to $e \nu ,~\Gamma (W \to e \nu) = G_\mu M_W^3 /(6 \pi \sqrt{2})$, has no oblique radiative corrections from new physics if the measured $W$ mass is used. Here $G_\mu = (1.16639 \pm…
We reinvestigate the leading QCD corrections to the radiative decay $b \to s \gamma for supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. Although the major contributions to the corrections originate from the running of the effective…
We compute the full set of weak-scale gauge and Yukawa threshold corrections in the minimal supersymmetric standard model, including all finite (non-logarithmic) corrections, which we show to be important. We use our results to examine the…
Precise measurements of the mass and width of the W boson are carried out in e+e- collisions at LEP, by kinematic reconstruction of the invariant mass distributions of WW->qqlv and WW->qqqq candidate events. The most recent combination of…
Some practical applications of algebraic renormalization are discussed. In particular we consider the two-loop QCD corrections to the three-gauge-boson vertices involving photons, Z and W bosons. For this purpose also the corresponding…
A model that gives family gauge bosons with an inverted mass hierarchy is proposed, stimulated by Sumino's cancellation mechanism for the QED radiative correction to the charged lepton masses. The Sumino mechanism cannot straightforwardly…
The central value and theoretical uncertainties on the cross section ratio sigma_W/sigma_Z at the Tevatron are evaluated using the NNLO calculations and the latest MSTW PDFs. The partial width, total width and branching ratios of the W…
We consider extensions of the Standard Model with an extra U(1) gauge boson which couples to B-(alpha L_e + beta L_mu + gamma L_tau) with alpha + beta + gamma = 3. We show that the extra gauge boson necessarily mixes with the Z leading to…
As an illustration of general principles, the $W$-boson loop contribution to the amplitude for the decay $H\to \gamma \gamma$ is calculated within a specific model for the effective lagrangian describing the anomalous gauge boson couplings.…
The QCD corrections to electroweak parameters depend on the renormalization scheme and scales used to define the top-quark mass. We analyze these dependences for the W-boson mass predicted via Delta r to O(alpha alpha_s) and O(alpha…
