It is well known that in every experiment involving charged particles there are individual photons emitted with small energy /omega and those with /omega < /omega_{0} will not be detected but are present in the data. The typical procedure…
QED radiative corrections to the cross-section of muon-antimuon annihilation into Higgs boson and photon are calculated within the 1-loop approximation. We write down the expression for cross-section in the form of Drell-Yan process, taking…
We review some recent progress in the theory of electroweak radiative corrections in semileptonic decay processes. The resurrection of the so-called Sirlin's representation based on current algebra relations permits a clear separation…
Radiative decays of the B meson are known to provide important constraints on the MSSM and many other realistic new physics models in the sub-TeV range. The inclusive branching ratio BR(B -> Xs gamma) being the key observable is currently…
In this talk I present the results of two calculations that make use of Non-Relativistic QCD and the newly developed Soft-Collinear Effective Theory. The first process considered is inclusive radiative $\Upsilon$ decay. The second process…
We present a QCD-based approach to the endpoint region of the lepton spectrum in $\bar B\to X_u\,\ell\,\bar\nu$ decays. We introduce a genuinely nonperturbative form factor, the shape function, which describes the fall-off of the spectrum…
Radiative QCD corrections significantly influence the theoretical predictions for the decay rates of the $Z$ and the Higgs boson. The status of the QCD calculations to the hadronic $Z$ width is reviewed. The role of mass corrections from…
The radiative leptonic $B\to \gamma\ell\nu_{\ell}$ decay serves as an ideal platform to determine the $B$-meson inverse moment which is a fundamental nonperturbative parameter for the $B$ meson. In this paper, we explore precise QCD…
Radiative magnetic dipole decays of heavy-light vector mesons into pseudoscalar mesons V -> P\gamma are considered within the relativistic quark model. The light quark is treated completely relativistically, while for the heavy quark the…
Hadronic decays of the $\tau$ lepton provide a clean environment to study hadron dynamics in an energy regime dominated by resonances. The interesting information is captured in the spectral functions. Recent results from ALEPH on exclusive…
The $O(\alpha)$ electromagnetic radiative corrections to the $B^- \rightarrow V^0 \ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ ($V$ is a vector meson and $\ell$ a charged lepton) decay rates are evaluated using the cutoff method to regularize virtual…
I consider nonleptonic decays of B mesons into two light mesons using the light-cone wave functions for the mesons. In the heavy quark limit, nonfactorizable contributions are calculable from first principles in some decay modes. I review…
We perform perturbative QCD factorization of infrared radiations associated with an energetic $b$ quark from a polarized top quark decay, taking the semi-leptonic channel as an example. The resultant formula is expressed as a convolution of…
We calculate and resum a perturbative expansion of nuclear enhanced power corrections to the structure functions measured in deeply inelastic scattering of leptons on a nuclear target. Our results for the Bjorken $x$-, $Q^2$- and…
I identify a source of Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q corrections to the assumption of quark-hadron duality in the application of heavy quark methods to inclusive heavy quark semileptonic decays Q->q l nu_l. These corrections could substantially affect…
We derive predictions for the hadronic matrix elements of radiative semileptonic decays of beautiful hadrons within Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET), relevant for future measurements at Belle II and LHCb. Our study considers Lambda(b) ->…
Reparametrization invariance relations are determined for the inclusive decay spectra of heavy hadrons. They connect the leading order result to the lambda_1 term, and the lambda_2 and rho_2 terms, and imply that the lambda_1 and rho_2…
We consider the inclusive radiative decays quarkonium -> gamma + hadrons and examine the effects of soft QCD radiation on the photon energy spectrum near the endpoint.
We present ``state-of-the-art'' theoretical expressions for the triple differential B->X_u l^- nu decay rate and for the B->X_s gamma photon spectrum, which incorporate all known contributions and smoothly interpolate between the…
Compact analytic expressions have been obtained for the first order perturbative QCD corrections to the inclusive spectra of the leptons in the semileptonic decays of polarised heavy quarks. Charmed and beautiful $\Lambda$ baryons from…
