We compute the effect of soft-gluon resummation, at the next-to-leading-logarithmic level, in the hadroproduction cross-section for heavy flavours. Applications to top, bottom and charm total cross-sections are discussed. We find in general…
There is no doubt that in the coming years we will witness the renaissance of kaon flavour physics with crucial measurements of the branching ratios for the rare decays $K^+\rightarrow\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_{L}\rightarrow\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$…
Landau gauge longitudinal and transverse gluon propagators are studied in lattice QCD with gauge group $SU(2)$ at varying temperature and quark density. In particular, it is found that the longitudinal propagator decreases with increasing…
