We summarize the top-quark mass measurements from the CDF and D0 experiments at Fermilab. We combine published Run-I (1992-1996) measurements with the most recent preliminary Run-II (2001-present) measurements using up to 2.8 fb^-1 of data.…
We discuss the main issues in dealing with heavy quarks on the lattice and shortly present the different approaches used. We discuss a selection of computations covering first the b-quark mass and the B(s) meson decay constants as the…
We measure the mass of the top quark in lepton+jets final states using the full sample of $p\bar{p}$ collision data collected by the D0 experiment in Run~II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at $\sqrt s=1.96~$TeV, corresponding to $9.7~{\rm…
We calculate to a few percent precision the Higgs potential in a model with supersymmetry broken by boundary conditions on an extra-dimension, compactified to a segment of length $L$, and a top quark quasi-localized on one of the two…
We present a lattice calculation of the decay constants and masses of $D_{(s)}^*$ and $B_{(s)}^*$ mesons using the gauge configurations produced by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration (ETMC) with $N_f = 2 + 1 + 1$ dynamical quarks and…
By analogy with an effective model of charged-lepton mass matrix that, with the inputs of $m^{exp}_e $ and $m^{exp}_\mu$, predicts (in a perturbative zero order) $m_\tau = 1776.80 $ MeV close to $m^{exp}_\tau = 1777.03^{+0.30}_{-0.26}$ MeV,…
We show that the simplest supersymmetric scenario where a large Higgs mass can be attained at tree-level for any ratio of the Higgs vacuum expectation values corresponds to the case where the neutrino masses are generated through the type…
The tau neutrino with a mass of about 10 MeV can be the ``late decaying particle'' in the cold dark matter scenario for the formation of structure in the Universe. We show how this may be realized specifically in the recently proposed…
We study the sensitivity of our recent MSTW 2008 NLO and NNLO PDF analyses to the values of the charm- and bottom-quark masses, and we provide additional public PDF sets for a wide range of these heavy-quark masses. We quantify the impact…
The Bakamjian-Thomas relativistic quark model for hadron current matrix elements, while non-covariant at finite mass, is successful in the heavy quark limit : form factors are covariant and satisfy Isgur-Wise scaling and Bjorken-Uraltsev…
We estimate the masses of the 1^{--} heavy four-quark and molecule states by combining exponential Laplace (LSR) and finite energy (FESR) sum rules known perturbatively to lowest order (LO) in alpha_s but including non-perturbative terms up…
By means of a heavy-top-quark effective Lagrangian, we calculate the three-loop corrections of O(alpha_s^2 G_F M_t^2) to the H->bb-bar partial decay width of the standard-model Higgs boson with intermediate mass M_H<<2M_t. We take advantage…
We study the origin of neutrino mass through lepton-number violation and spontaneous $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ symmetry breaking. To accomplish the purpose, we include one Higgs triplet, two singlet scalars, and two vector-like doublet leptons…

Recent experimental improvements on K-decay data allow for a precise extraction of the strangeness-changing scalar K pi form factor and the related strange scalar spectral function. On the basis of this scalar as well as the corresponding…
We study a possibility to explain neutrino masses and mixings based on supersymmetry. If we introduce a flavor diagonal but generation dependent extra U(1) gauge interaction at a TeV region, we can obtain masses and mixings of neutrinos…

In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the Fermi scale of electroweak symmetry breaking is determined by the pattern of supersymmetry breaking. We present an example, motivated by a higher-dimensional GUT model, where a…
