Harvey, Hill, and Hill have found that unexpected interactions involving the nucleon, photon, and weak gauge bosons at low energies emerge from gauging the axial anomaly of QCD under the full electroweak symmetry of the Standard Model (SM).…

We study the decays of a standard model-like MSSM Higgs boson to pairs of neutralinos, each of which subsequently decays promptly to a photon and a gravitino. Such decays can arise in supersymmetric scenarios where supersymmetry breaking is…
The simple model which enables to take into account the effects of a colour string fusion in pp interactions is suggested. The parameters of the model are connected with the parameters of the pomeron trajectory and its couplings to hadrons.…
psi and Upsilon decays may be used to search for light neutral spin-1 or spin-0 bosons associated with a broken extra-U(1) symmetry, local or global, acting axially on quarks and leptons, as may be present in supersymmetric theories with a…
It is shown that muon decays in straight sections of muon collider rings will naturally produce highly collimated neutrino beams that can be several orders of magnitude stronger than the beams at existing accelerators. We discuss possible…

The contribution of the weak interaction to the hyperfine splitting of the ground state of muonium is investigated. The amplitudes of the one- and two-quantum exchange determined by the Z and W bosons are calculated. One-loop corrections in…
We study the semileptonic decays of the $B_c$ meson into final charmonium states within the standard model and beyond. The relevant hadronic transition form factors are calculated in the framework of the covariant confined quark model…
There is currently enormous interest in the investigation of how hadron properties may be altered by immersion in matter. There is strong evidence of a reduction in the mass of the rho meson from relativistic heavy ion collisions as well as…
We investigate the muonic decay of a light Higgs boson, produced in weak boson fusion at future hadron colliders. We find that this decay mode would be observable at the CERN LHC only with an unreasonably large amount of data, while at a…
We derive an expression for the collective Casimir-Polder interaction of a trapped gas of condensed bosons with a plane surface through the coupling of the condensate atoms with the electromagnetic field. A systematic perturbation theory is…

At muon colliders, muon decays naturally produce intense electrons and positrons with unique features, namely high energies, high repetition rates, and small intrinsic uncertainties, that are unavailable at existing accelerator facilities.…
