We examine commonly used approaches to deal with the scattering of electrons from a bound nucleon. Several prescriptions are shown to be related by gauge transformations. Nevertheless, due to current non-conservation, they yield different…
We study possible deviations from the Standard Model in the reaction $e^+e^- \to Z\phi$, where $\phi$ denotes a spinless neutral boson. We show how the $Z$ decay angular correlation can be used to extract detailed information on the $\phi$…
