Analytic formulae for the one-loop order QCD corrections to the differential width of the semileptonic b decay are given with the tau polarization taken into account. Thence the polarization of tau is expressed by its energy and the…
The QCD corrections to electroweak parameters depend on the renormalization scheme and scales used to define the top-quark mass. We analyze these dependences for the W-boson mass predicted via Delta r to O(alpha alpha_s) and O(alpha…
Theoretical predictions for inclusive semileptonic B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation expansion. This method gives theoretically consistent and…
The pseudoscalar sum rules of the heavy-light quark systems are used for extracting simultaneously the c,b quark masses and the decay constants f_D_(s),f_B_(s) of the D_(s),B_(s) mesons. To order alpha_s^2, one obtains the running quark…

We obtain the baryon number density, n, and the excess contribution to the pressure, Delta P, at finite chemical potential, mu_B, and temperature, T, by resumming the Taylor series expansion in a lattice computation with lattice spacing of…
We present the deterimination of the bottom quark mass using non-relativistic $\Upsilon$ Sum Rules at $\text{N}^3\text{LO}^*$[1]. The explicit dependence of $\overline{m}_b(\overline{m}_b)$ on the input value $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ is given for…
We compute, for the first time, the absorptive part of the massless correlator of two quark scalar currents in five loops. As physical applications we consider the O(alpha_s^4) corrections to the decay rate of the Standard Model Higgs boson…

We compute the \alpha_s^2\beta_0 part of the two-loop QCD corrections to the charged lepton spectrum in b \to c \ell \bar\nu_\ell decays and find them to be about 50\% of the first order corrections at all lepton energies, except those…
We calculate, to 3 loops in perturbation theory, the bare $\beta$-function of QCD, formulated on the lattice with the clover fermionic action. The dependence of our result on the number of colors $N$, the number of fermionic flavors $N_f$,…
Recent results for higher-order corrections to the relation between the vector-boson masses in the Standard Model and Supersymmetry are summarized. In the Standard Model, the Higgs-mass dependence of the two-loop contributions to Delta r is…
We evaluate masses and semileptonic decay widths for the ground state of doubly heavy $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ baryons in the framework of a nonrelativistic quark model. We solve the three-body problem by means of a variational ansatz made…
In this paper, we explore the properties of the bottom-quark on-shell mass ($M_b$) by using its relation to the $\overline{\rm MS}$ mass (${\overline m}_b$). At present, this $\overline{\rm MS}$-on-shell relation has been known up to…
We use QCD sum rules to analyze the semileptonic transition $B \to \pi \ell \nu$ in the limit $m_b \to \infty$. We derive the dependence of the form factor $F_1(0)$ on the heavy quark mass, which is compatible with the expected dependence…
