At proposed high energy linear e+e- colliders a large number of W bosons and top quarks will be produced. We evaluate the potential precision to which the decay branching ratios into the various quark species can be measured, implying also…
The Belle II experiment's ability to identify particles critically affects the sensitivity of its measurements. We describe Belle II's algorithms for identifying charged particles and evaluate their performance in separating pions, kaons,…
Tau-lepton decays with up to two $\pi^0$'s in the final state, $\tau^+ \to \pi^+ \bar{\nu}_\tau$, $\rho^+ (\pi^+\pi^0) \bar{\nu}_\tau$, $a^+_1 (\pi^+\pi^0\pi^0) \bar{\nu}_\tau$, are used to study the performance of the barrel part of the…
Electroweak Precision Measurements are stringent tests of the Standard Model and sensitive probes to New Physics. Accurate studies of the Z-boson couplings to the first-generation quarks could reveal potential discrepancies between the…
We compute QCD corrections to the production of a ttbar pair in association with a hard photon at the Tevatron and the LHC. This process allows a direct measurement of the top quark electromagnetic couplings that, at the moment, are only…
We present complete results for the $O(\alpha_s)$ corrections to the production of a heavy quark pair plus a hard photon, in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation, including both photon and $Z$ intermediate states. Virtual corrections are calculated…
We have studied the measurement accuracy of the forward-backward asymmetry of the $e^+e^- \rightarrow t\bar{t}$ process in the 6-jet mode at $\sqrt{s} = 500$ GeV with the ILD detector. In the analysis the vertex charges of b-jets were used…
Using a unified hadron-quark effective model for the QCD equation of state, this paper studies the phase structure of strongly interacting matter in a wide range of temperature and baryonchemical potential. At small potentials the model…
The precise knowledge of the QED initial state corrections is of instrumental importance in studying high luminosity measurements in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at facilities like LEP, the International Linear Collider ILC, CLIC, a Giga-$Z$…
The quartic gauge coupling (QGC) of the electroweak interaction can be used as a probe for physics beyond the Standard Model and has been previously measured at the Large Hadron Collider. However, to achieve sensitivity to small deviations…
We compute the leading-log QED, the next-to-leading-log QED-QCD, and the electroweak corrections to the charm quark contribution relevant for the rare decay K+ -> pi+ nu nu-bar. The corresponding parameter P_c(X) is increased by up to 2%…
A precise calculation of the top quark pair production associated with a hard photon is essential for testing the electroweak property of the top quark in the Standard Model (SM). We investigate the one-loop QCD corrections to the process…
Electroweak Precision Measurements are stringent tests of the Standard Model and sensitive probes to New Physics. Accurate studies of the $Z$-boson couplings to the first-generation quarks, which are currently constrained from LEP data to a…
We calculate the charge balance function of the bulk quark system before hadronization and those for the directly produced and the final hadron system in high energy heavy ion collisions. We use the covariance coefficient to describe the…
We present calculations of next-to-leading order and resummed QCD corrections for semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering and single-inclusive e+e- annihilation. The resummation is performed to next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. Knowing…
Combining recent perturbative analyses on the static QCD potential and the quark pole mass, we find that, for the heavy quarkonium states $c\bar{c}$, $b\bar{b}$ and $t\bar{t}$, (1) ultra-soft (US) corrections in the binding energies are…
We present a study of the experimental determination of the forward-backward asymmetry in the process $e^+e^-\to t\bar t$ and in the subsequent $t\to Wb$ decay, studied in the context of the International Linear Collider. This process…
The increasing importance of hadronic resonances in our understanding of the Standard Model is underscored by recent advancements in lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) calculations. We review recent developments, with a particular…
It is shown that up to an over all scale the lowest-order QCD corrections to $t\to H^+b$ and to $t\to W^+b$ are the same in the heavy top limit. Asymptotically, they are given by $-{4\alpha_s\over 3\pi}[{\pi^2\over 3}-{5\over 4}]$,…
QCD corrections to all the allowed decays of superheavy groundstate quarkonia into electroweak gauge and Higgs bosons are presented. For quick estimates, approximations that reproduce the exact results within less than at worst two percent…
