We derive model-independent bounds on the form factors for the decay $B_c^+ \to \eta_c\, \ell^+\, \nu$ including full mass effects, i.e. $\ell = e,\, \mu, \text{ and } \tau$. The bounds are obtained by using the BGL parameterization for the…

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…
