We review in some detail the QCD corrections to the measurement of the forward-backward charge asymmetry of heavy quarks in the $\mathrm{e^+e^-\rightarrow Q\overline{Q}(g)}$ process at the Z pole. We show that the size of these corrections…
Top-quark physics plays an important role at hadron colliders such as the Tevatron at Fermilab or the LHC at CERN. Given the planned precision at these colliders, precise theoretical predictions are required. In this paper we present the…
This paper describes an analysis performed at 250 GeV centre of mass energy for the reaction e+e- -> bbbar with the International Linear Collider, ILC, assuming an integrated luminosity of 500 fb-1. This measurement requires determining the…
The forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{FB}$) in light-quark production is a sensitive probe of the electroweak sector and potential flavour-dependent BSM effects. We present a study of $e^+e^- \rightarrow s\bar{s}$ at $\sqrt{s}=250$ GeV at…
The semi-inclusive decay processes of a top quark into a charged pseudo-scalar meson and a jet are studied within the framework of QCD factorization. The leading power of the decay matrix elements can be factorized into heavy-to-light quark…
Top quark production in the process $e^+e^- \to t\bar{t}$ at a future linear electron positron collider with polarised beams is a powerful tool to determine indirectly the scale of new physics. The presented study, based on a detailed…
The next-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the e+e- annihilation into hadrons are considered. The stability of the predictions with respect to change of the renormalization scheme is discussed in detail for the case of five, four and…
The design of detector concepts has been driven for a long time by requirements on transverse momentum, impact parameter and jet energy resolutions, as well as hermeticity. Only rather recently it has been realised that the ability to…

We consider the electron-positron annihilation process into hadrons $R_{e^+e^-}$ up to $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{s}^{3})$ and we adopt the smearing method suggest by Poggio, Quinn and Weinberg to confront the experimental data with theory. As a…
Equipping an experiment at FCC-ee with particle identification (PID) capabilities, in particular the ability to distinguish between hadron species, would bring great benefits to the physics programme. Good PID is essential for precise…
We calculate the electroweak corrections of the order $O({m_t^2\over v^2})$ to the QCD production of $t\bar{t}$ pairs via $q+qbar->t+tbar$ at hadron colliders and show that these corrections to the total production rate are small. This…
The quantum electrodynamics (QED) corrections are directly incorporated into the most accurate treatment of the correlation corrections for ions with complex electronic structure of interest to metrology and tests of fundamental physics. We…
We review recent Z^0 physics results from SLD that use the Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector for charged particle identification. The performance of the detector and likelihood method are described briefly. Several hadronization measurements…
We study the pair production of scalar top-quark partners decaying to a top-quark pair plus large missing energy at the LHC, a signature which appears in numerous models that address outstanding problems at the TeV-scale. The severe…

We introduce a model independent method for the determination of the hadronic contribution to the QED running coupling, $\Delta\alpha_{\text{HAD}}(M_{Z}^{2})$, requiring no $e^+e^-$ annihilation data as input. This is achieved by…
We outline a strategy to efficiently include the electromagnetic interactions of the sea quarks in QCD+QED. When computing iso-spin breaking corrections to hadronic quantities at leading order in the electromagnetic coupling, the sea-quark…
In these lecture notes the basics of QED corrections to hadronic decays are reviewed with special emphasis on conceptual (e.g. counting and tracking of infrared sensitive logs) rather than numerical aspects. General matters are illustrated…
Particle Identification (PID) plays a key role in heavy flavor physics in high-energy physics experiments. However, its impact on Higgs physics is still not clear. In this note, we will explore some of the potential of PID to improve the…
