We briefly summarize current experimental and theoretical results on the $\pi^0$ Dalitz decay, including the new value for the ratio $R={\Gamma(\pi^0\to e^+e^-\gamma(\gamma))}/{\Gamma(\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma)}=11.978(6)\times10^{-3}$, which is…
We calculate the corrections to the three-gluon decay widths $\Gamma_{3g}$ of $c\bar c$ and $b \bar b$ quarkonia due to the finite extension of the $Q\bar Q\to 3g$ vertex function. The widths computed with zero range vertex are reduced by a…
We present partial numerical results in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with soft breaking of supersymmetry, and radiative breaking of the electroweak symmetry. We impose the additional relation, bottom mass = tau mass at the GUT…
In detection of electrons from $\mu \to e $ conversion process the monochromatic electron spectrum is transformed due to a photon emission and fluctuations of energy loss in a target. The selection criterion of $\mu \to e (\gamma)$…

We report an all-electron, atomic orbital (AO) based, two-component (2C) implementation of the $GW$ approximation (GWA) for closed-shell molecules. Our algorithm is based on the space-time formulation of the GWA and uses analytical…
We study a subset of electroweak-precision observables consisting of $M_W$, $\sin^2\theta_{{\tiny eff}}^{\tau}$, $BR(Z\to\tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\Gamma(Z\to\tau^+\tau^-)/\Gamma(Z\to e^+e^-)-1$ (characterizing leptonic $Z$-decays) in the context…
In high-energy collisions far above the electroweak scale, the effects of electroweak symmetry breaking are expected to become parametrically small $\delta \sim M_W/E$. This defines the extent to which the electroweak gauge symmetry is…
An experiment has been performed to search for the muon- and electron-number non-conserving decay mu+ to e+_gamma. The upper limit for the branching ratio to be GAMMA(mu+ to e+_gamma)/GAMMA(mu+ to e+_nu_nubar) < 1.2e-11 with 90% confidence.
This Letter describes a direct measurement of the $W$ boson total decay width, $\gw$, using the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The measurement uses an integrated luminosity of $90\invpb$, collected during the 1994--1995 run of the Fermilab…
Radiative muon decay in the kinematics similar to the neutrinoless decay $\mu\to e\gamma$ is considered. Radiative corrections due to 1-loop virtual photons and emission of additional soft or hard photons are taken into account. Analytical…
There are two aspects to the 1995 summer update of the combined preliminary electroweak data from LEP and SLC. On the one hand, agreement between experiments and the Standard Model (SM) has improved for the line-shape and the asymmetry…
We derive the leptonic neutral current in the simplest little Higgs model and compute the contribution of the model to the decay width $Z \to e^+e^-$. Using the precision electroweak data we obtain a strong lower bound $f\geq 5.6$ TeV at…
We present a detailed theoretical analysis of very rare, exclusive hadronic decays of the electroweak gauge bosons V=W, Z from first principles of QCD. Our main focus is on the radiative decays V->M+gamma, in which M is a pseudoscalar or…

We calculate the electroweak and finite width corrections to the decay of an unpolarized top quark into a bottom quark and a $ W $-gauge boson where the helicities of the $ W $ are specified as longitudinal, transverse-plus and…
The rare decay $H\to \gamma\gamma$ is a promising detection channel for an intermediate mass Higgs boson. We compute its two-loop $O(\alpha^2 G_F m_t^2)$ correction in the standard model and find that the relative correction to the decay…
We analytically compute quadratic mass corrections of order $\alpha_s^3 m_q^2/s$ to the absorptive part of the (non-diagonal) correlator of two axial vector currents. This allows us to find the correction of order $\alpha_s^3 m_q^2/M^2_W$…
High precision measurements of electroweak observables at $e^\pm$ colliders indicate the existence of a light Higgs boson below the $W^\pm$ threshold. If such a fundamental scalar should be found in the near future it is important to fully…
We compute the complete two-loop O(alpha) Wilson coefficients relevant for radiative decays of the B meson in the SM. This is a necessary step in the calculation of the O(alpha alpha_s^n ln^n m_b/M_W) corrections and improves on our…
