A combination of algebraical and numerical techniques for calculating two-loop top-quark and Higgs-boson corrections to electroweak precision observables like $\Delta r$ or the $\rho$-parameter is presented. The renormalization is performed…
We use the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ approximation of the heavy-quark vacuum polarization function in the threshold region to determine the bottom quark mass from nonrelativistic $\Upsilon$ sum rules. We find very good stability and…
We consider top-anti-top production near threshold in $e^+ e^-$ collisions, resumming Coulomb-enhanced corrections at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). We also sum potentially large logarithms of the small top quark velocity at the…
We make use of recent results in effective theory and higher-order perturbative calculations to improve the theoretical predictions of the top-quark pair production cross section at hadron colliders. In particular, we supplement the…
We consider a framework for the construction of iterative schemes for operator equations that combine low-rank approximation in tensor formats and adaptive approximation in a basis. Under fairly general assumptions, we obtain a rigorous…
We provide a systematic renormalization group formalism to study the mass effects in the relation of the pole mass and short-distance masses such as the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ mass of a heavy quark $Q$, coming from virtual loop insertions…
We extend existing work on reparametrization invariance (RPI) of the heavy-quark expansion. We discuss the total rates of inclusive processes and obtain results which have a manifest RPI and can be expressed through matrix elements of…
We review recent development on combining heavy-quark symmetry and chiral symmetry in the skyrmion structure of the baryons containing one or more heavy quarks, c (charmed) and b (bottom). We describe two approaches: One going from the…
A precise measurement of the top quark mass, a fundamental parameter of the Standard Model, is among the most important goals of top quark studies at the Large Hadron Collider. Apart from the standard methods, numerous new observables and…
We compute three-loop corrections to the relation between the heavy quark masses defined in the pole and kinetic schemes. Using known relations between the pole and $\overline{\rm MS}$ quark masses we can establish precise relations between…
I review recent determinations of the (on-shell) charm- and beauty-quark masses in the framework of relativistic and non-relativistic ratios of Laplace transform QCD moment sum rules. The validity of the non-relativistic version of QCD sum…
We consider the Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) for the nonleptonic decay rates of heavy hadrons, and compute the NLO QCD corrections to power terms up to order $1/m_Q^2$. We neglect the masses of the final-state quarks, so the application of…
The top quark pair production and decay are considered in the framework of the smeared-mass unstable particles model. The results for total and differential cross sections in vicinity of $t\bar{t}$ threshold are in good agreement with the…
This paper studies finite volume schemes for scalar hyperbolic conservation laws on evolving hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{R}^3$. We compare theoretical schemes assuming knowledge of all geometric quantities to (practical) schemes defined on…
Quark masses are of great prominence in high-energy physics. In this paper, we have studied the heavy meson systems via solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation by using the Martin potential for heavy quark masses. We have also attempted to…
In a recent work [10], we have introduced a pressure-robust Hybrid High-Order method for the numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on matching simplicial meshes. Pressure-robust methods are characterized by error…
Perturbative calculations for processes that involve heavy flavours can be performed in two approaches: the massive scheme and the massless one. The former enables one to fully account for the heavy-quark kinematics, while the latter allows…
We give improved estimates for the non-perturbative parameters appearing in the heavy quark expansion for inclusive decays. While the parameters appearing in low orders of this expansion can be extracted from data, the number of parameters…
Effects associated with hyperfine mass splitting between pseudo\-scalar and vector mesons may induce surprisingly large $1/{m}_{Q}^{2}$ corrections in the heavy quark expansion. We demonstrate this in a relativistic quark model by…
The use of Heavy Quark Symmetry to study bottom and charmed baryons leads to important simplifications of the non-relativistic three body problem, which turns out to be easily solved by a simple variational ansatz. Our simple scheme…
