Recent results of two interesting classes of supersymmetric two-loop contributions to (g-2)_mu are presented. Two-loop diagrams involving a closed sfermion loop can amount to 5*10^{-10} or almost one standard deviation of the current…

$SU(2)$ gauge fields and axions can have a stable, isotropic and homogeneous configuration during inflation. However, couplings to other matter species lead to particle production, which in turn induces backreaction on and destabilization…
We derive the fermionic contribution to the 1-loop effective action for A_4 and A_i fields at high temperatures, assuming that gluon fields are slowly varying but allowing for an arbitrary amplitude of A_4.
