The O(alpha m_t^2/m_W^2) corrections to top quark pair production by gluon-gluon fusion at the LHC are calculated in two-Higgs-doublet models. We find that the correction to the cross-section can exceed about -10% for certain parameter…
We have calculated the decay width of the process $t \to \tilde{g} \tilde{t}_1$ including one loop QCD corrections. We found that the decay width of the such process could be comparable with that of the standard channel $t \to b W^+$, and,…
The rare decay $H\to \gamma\gamma$ is a promising detection channel for an intermediate mass Higgs boson. We compute its two-loop $O(\alpha^2 G_F m_t^2)$ correction in the standard model and find that the relative correction to the decay…

We present the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections of O(alpha_s^2 G_F M_t^2) to the low-M_H effective l^+l^-H, ZZH, and W^+W^-H interaction Lagrangians in the high-M_t limit. In the on-shell scheme formulated with G_F, the O(alpha_s^2 G_F…
We give a more complete calculation of $b \to s e^+e^- $ decay including leading log QCD corrections from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$ in addition to corrections from $M_{W}$ to $m_b$. The differential decay rate is found to be slightly suppressed…
The asymmetries ${\cal A}_k \equiv [\Gamma(\twddec) -\Gamma(\tbwddec)] /[\Gamma(\twddec) + \Gamma(\tbwddec)]$ in the partial widths of the top quark decays are discussed within the Standard Model (SM), the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) and…
We present $O(\alpha_s^2)$ QCD corrections to the fully-differential decay rate of a $b$-quark into inclusive semileptonic charmless final states. Our calculation provides genuine two-loop QCD corrections, beyond the…
This report summarises recent advances made in the calculation of the NNLO QCD corrections to the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_s$ in the $B_s-\overline{B}_s$ system. The inclusion of the effects due to current-current operators leads to…
