We study the processes, $e^- e^+ \rightarrow \gamma^* \gamma^* \rightarrow J/\psi +J/\psi$, and $e^- e^+ \rightarrow \gamma^* \gamma^* \rightarrow \eta_c+ \eta_c$ at $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV in the framework of $4\times 4$ Bethe-Salpeter…
In this talk we discuss the next-to-leading-order electroweak (EW) corrections to W-boson + jet hadroproduction [1] and compare the full result to a simple approximation assuming factorization of EW and QCD corrections for the…
A simple method has been introduced to derive the all order quantum corrected Bose-Einstein distribution as the solution of the Wigner equation. The process is a perturbative one where the Bose-Einstein distribution has been taken as the…
One of the most powerful methods for obtaining a precision measurement of M_W at LEP2 is from direct reconstruction of the invariant mass distribution of W bosons produced in e+e- --> W+W-. We investigate the effects on the W line shape,…
The behaviour of like-charge and unlike-charge second factorial moments in $e^+e^-$ reactions is discussed. It is argued that Monte Carlo calculation with the help of generators JETSET 7.4 and HERWIG 5.8 points to the conclusion that the…
A procedure of implementing QCD corrections in Monte Carlo programs by a reweighting method is described for the photoproduction of W bosons at HERA. Tables for W boson production in LO and NLO are given in bins of the transverse momentum…
We discuss many new subleading processes for inclusive production of W+W- pairs generally not included in the literature so far. We focus mainly on photon-photon induced processes. We include elastic-elastic, elastic-inelastic,…
Recent results on effects of Bose-Einstein symmetrization in a system of independently produced particles are interpreted in terms of statistical physics. For a large class of distributions, the effective sizes of the system in momentum and…
Bose-Einstein correlations between like-charge pions are studied in hadronic final states produced by e+e- annihilations at center-of-mass energies of 172 and 183 GeV. Three event samples are studied, each dominated by one of the processes…
Production of electroweak bosons in e+e- annihilation into quarks and into leptons at energies much greater than 100 Gev is considered. We account for double-logarithmic contributions to all orders in electroweak couplings. It is assumed…
For a system of identical Bose particles sitting on integer energy levels, we give sharp estimates for the convergence of the sequence of occupation numbers to the Bose-Einstein distribution and for the Bose condensation effect.
We study large extra dimension effects on the polarizations of the $W$ pair and electron beam at the $e^+ e^-\to W^+ W^-$ process. It is shown that the measurements of the cross section for transversely polarized $W$ pair with the…
The Monte Carlo program {\tt WWGENPV}, designed for computing distributions and generating events for the four-fermion process $e^+ e^- \to W^+ W^- \to 4f$, is described. It is based on the calculation of the exact tree-level matrix element…
The impact of higher-order final-state photonic corrections on the precise determination of the W-boson mass at the Tevatron and LHC colliders is evaluated. In the presence of realistic selection criteria, the shift in the W mass from a fit…
Bose-Einstein symmetrization can lead to correlations between out going identical particles which reflect the space-time extent of the collision process. At LEP and LEPII these correlations have been studied as a function of a single…
The impact of higher-order final-state photonic corrections on the precise determination of the W-boson mass at the Tevatron and LHC colliders is evaluated. The W-mass shift from a fit to the transverse mass distribution is found to be…
We argue that the recent BESIII data on the cross section for the process $e^+e^- \to \chi_{c0} \, \omega$ in the center of mass energy range 4.21 - 4.42 GeV can be described by the contribution of the known charmonium-like resonance…
Analogue models of gravity have been motivated by the possibility of investigating phenomena not readily accessible in their cosmological counterparts. In this paper, we investigate the analogue of cosmological particle creation in a…
Recent conjectures that there are mesoscopically ``large'' extra dimensions, through which gravity propagates have interesting implications for much of physics. The scenario implies gross departures from Newton's law of gravity at small…
We calculate the Coulomb effects on the cross section for e+ e- --> W+ W- taking into account the instability of the W bosons. We carefully explain the consequences of instability throughout the energy range which will be accessible at…
