The process e+e- --> W+W- provides a valuable laboratory to test the Standard Model (SM) and to search for new physics. The most general helicity amplitudes for this process require the introduction of nine form-factors which we calculate…
We examine single chargino production in conjunction with R-parity lepton number violation in future lepton-lepton collisions. Present bounds on R-parity violating couplings allow for a production cross section of the order of ${\cal{O}}…
In some areas of supersymmetry parameter space, sneutrinos are lighter than the charginos and the next-to-lightest neutralino, and they decay into the invisible neutrino plus lightest-neutralino channel with probability one. In such a…
A thorough study is performed on pair production and signatures of supersymmetric neutralinos in the MSSM at LEP2. Particular attention is paid to the region of the SuSy parameter space where the associated production of lightest and…
In total 1317 di-lepton events with significant missing transverse momentum were identified in a total data sample of 680 pb-1 collected at e+e- centre-of-mass energies ranging from 183 GeV to 209 GeV. The number of di-lepton events, the…
We present a fully relativistic and gauge invariant framework for calculating the cross sections of dilepton production in nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) collisions which is based on the meson-exchange approximation for the $NN$ scattering…

We study the potential of an $e^+e^-$ linear collider to search for neutralino-neutralino-photon production. Our analysis shows that this signal is not viable under realistic expectations for electron beam polarization due to large Standard…
We confront the generally small cross sections for gluino pair production in e^+e^- annihilation with the much larger ones in photon-photon scattering at a multi-TeV linear collider like CERN CLIC. The larger rates and the steeper rise of…
We discuss pair production of stops, sbottoms, staus and tau--sneutrinos at a $\mu^+ \mu^-$ collider. We present the formulae for the production cross sections and perform a detailed numerical analysis within the Minimal Supersymmetric…
Dilepton production has been measured with HADES, the "High Acceptance DiElectron Spectrometer". In pp collisions at 2.2GeV kinetic beam energy, exclusive eta production and the Dalitz decay eta -> gamma e+e- has been reconstructed. The…
We present the full one-loop radiative corrections to pair production of neutralinos in e+e- collisions within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Particular attention is paid to the definition of weak and QED corrections. The…
We present new sets of fragmentation functions for neutral kaons, both at leading and next-to-leading order. They are fitted to data on inclusive K^0 production in e^+e^- annihilation taken by MARK II at PEP (\sqrt s = 29 GeV) and by ALEPH…
We study the prospects for detecting the sleptons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model at hadron colliders and supercolliders. We use ISAJET 7.03 to simulate charged slepton and sneutrino pair production, incorporating slepton and…

We search for inclusive high $E_T$ diphoton events with large missing transverse energy in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=1.8 TeV. Such events are expected from pair production of charginos and neutralinos within the framework of the…
In R-parity conserving supersymmetric models, sleptons are produced in pairs at hadron colliders. We show that measurements of the longitudinal single-spin asymmetry at possible polarization upgrades of existing colliders allow for a direct…
