We exhibit a method for simultaneously treating recoil and threshold corrections in single-photon inclusive cross sections, working within the formalism of collinear factorization. This approach conserves both the energy and transverse…
The dilepton production rate from the deconfined medium is analyzed with the photon self-energies constructed from quark propagators obtained by lattice numerical simulation for two values of temperature $T=1.5T_{\rm c}$ and $3T_{\rm c}$…
Photons produced in pi p interactions at 280 GeV/c were detected by reconstructing the e+e- pairs produced via the materialisation of the photons in a 1 mm thick lead sheet placed in front of the MWPCs of the OMEGA spectrometer at CERN. A…
Calculations of the opacity of hot, dense matter require models for plasma line broadening. However, the most general theories are too complex to calculate directly and some approximation is inevitably required. The most widely-used…
We explore how the dilepton production rate is modified near the critical temperature of color superconductivity and QCD critical point by the soft modes inherently associated with the phase transitions of second-order. It is shown that the…
I review the Lee-Nauenberg thereom and discuss its inclusion of photons which are disconnected at the level of the S-matrix but connected at the level of the cross-section when there are initial and final state charged particles. I then…
It is argued that the definition of the twist-3 transverse momentum dependent correlation functions must be modified if they contain light-like Wilson lines. In the framework of a simple spectator model of the nucleon we show explicitly the…
The studies of the associated production processes of a top-quark pair with a colour-singlet boson, e.g. Higgs, W or Z, are among the highest priorities of the LHC programme. Correspondingly, improvements in precision of theoretical…
A future gamma factory at CERN or accelerator-based gamma sources elsewhere can include the possibility of energetic twisted photons, which are photons with a structured wave front that can allow a pre-defined large angular momentum along…
We examine the prospects for studying the diffractive production of high pt photons in the process gamma+gamma -> gamma+X at a future linear collider operating in both ee and gamma-gamma modes. The high luminosity associated with a linear…
We report detailed temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra of pentacene (PEN), perfluoropentacene (PFP), and PEN:PFP mixed thin films grown on SiO2. PEN and PFP are particularly suitable for this study, since they are…
A calculation is presented of the plasmon and photon damping rates in a dense nonrelativistic plasma at zero temperature, following the resummation program of Braaten-Pisarski. At small soft momentum $k$, the damping is dominated by $3 \to…

We discuss the production of heavy colored paricles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) through gluon-gluon fusion process. A factorization theorem is obtained for this process using Soft Collinear Effective Theory. Our factorization theorem…
A soft photon approximation is used to calculate the rates of lepton pair production through virtual bremsstrahlung from both pions and quarks. Standard assumptions about the evolution of a nuclear system under collision allow pion and…

By including Klein-Nishina effects, we generalize previous calculations of the beaming pattern of photons produced by inverse Compton scattering. For an isotropic distribution of soft photons upscattered by nonthermal electrons with a…
