We illustrate one-loop weak corrections to three-jet production in $e^+e^-$ at $\sqrt{s}=M_Z$, to the production of a $Z$ or $\gamma$ in association with a hard jet at hadron colliders and to the production cross section of two $b$-jets at…
We calculate the cross section for inclusive prompt photon production in $\gamma\gamma$ collisions, i.e. the reaction $e^+e^-\to \gamma \gamma \to \gamma X$, in next-to-leading order QCD. We show that at LEP2 energies this cross section is…
The production of low mass e+e- pairs for m_{e+e-} < 300 MeV/c^2 and 1 < p_T <5 GeV/c is measured in p+p and Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV. Enhanced yield above hadronic sources is observed. Treating the excess as internal…

Neutral gauge bosons beyond the Standard Model are becoming interesting as possible mediators to explain several experimental anomalies. They have small masses, below one GeV, and are referred to as dark photons, $U$, $A'$ or $Z'$ bosons.…
We study Higgs boson production in association with a pair of electroweak vector bosons ($WW,ZZ,Z\gamma$) at future $\epem$ colliders in the framework of the Standard Model. Total cross sections and distributions for the intermediate-mass…
Cosmic ray protons generate gamma-rays, neutrinos, and secondary electrons and positrons (e+/-) through pion-producing collisions with gas atoms. Any synchrotron or Inverse Compton (IC) radiation from secondary e+/- is therefore accompanied…

Hadron production ($\pi^\pm$, proton, $\Lambda$, $K_S^0$, $K^\pm$) in $\pi^- + \mathrm{C}$ and $\pi^- + \mathrm{W}$ collisions is investigated at an incident pion beam momentum of $1.7~\mathrm{GeV}/c$. This comprehensive set of data…
In a previous paper, we studied the Higgs pair production in the standard model with the reaction $e^{+}e^{-}\to t \bar t HH$. Based on this, we study the Higgs pair production via $e^{+}e^{-}\to b \bar b HH$. We evaluate the total cross…
The physics programme for a coming electron linear collider is dominated by events with final states containing many jets. We develop in this paper the opinion that the best approach is to optimise the independent measurement of the tracks…
We have constructed a Monte Carlo generator for lowest-order predictions for the processes gamma gamma -> 4f and gamma gamma -> 4f+gamma in the Standard Model and extensions thereof by an effective gamma gamma Higgs coupling as well as…

We study the potential of high-energy photon colliders for the production of gluino pairs within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In this model, the process gamma gamma -> gluino gluino is mediated by quark/squark box…
