The $e^+e^-\to\eta\gamma$ cross section is measured in the center-of-mass energy range from 1.07 to 2.00 GeV in the decay channel $\eta\to 3\pi^0$, $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$. The data set with an integrated luminosity of 242 pb$^{-1}$…
The e+e- -> pi+pi-pi+pi- cross section has been measured using 5.8/pb of integrated luminosity collected with the CMD-2 detector at the VEPP-2M collider. Analysis of the data with a refined efficiency determination and use of both three-…
We discuss theoretical predictions for W-pair production and decay at LEP2 and higher energies in a form suitable for comparison with raw data. We present a practical framework for calculating uncertainties of predictions given by the…
We discuss the potential of a $0.5\hskip 2pt TeV$ linear collider to explore manifestations of extended (or alternative) electroweak models of current interest, through measurements of the reaction $e^+e^-\to W^+W^-$ with both initial and…
We present a fully differential computation of $e^+\,e^-\to\gamma\,\gamma$ at next-to-next-to-leading order in QED. The process has been implemented into McMule, completing its set of next-to-next-to-leading-order calculations for the most…
We present a calculation of the complete electroweak O(alpha) corrections to pp/ppbar -> W+/- -> l+/- nu (l=e, mu) in the Standard Model of electroweak interactions, focusing on those corrections which do not contribute in the pole…
An alternative W mass estimator in e+e- -> WW -> qqqq events at LEP2 is designed to optimize the balance between the statistical uncertainty and the systematic uncertainty due to a possible Colour Reconnection effect. The preliminary result…
We analyze from a theoretical point of view the impact of various approximations on W mass distributions. This is done both at parton level and after a simulated W mass reconstruction using constrained fits. The results may help to…
The systematic uncertainty on the W mass and width measurement resulting from the imperfect knowledge of electroweak radiative corrections is discussed. The intrinsic uncertainty in the 4-f generator used by the DELPHI Collaboration is…
We present an efficient generator for the process e+e- to 4 fermions + gamma through off-shell W pairs. It is based on a massless matrix element with leading order(m^2) corrections. Only the resonant WW graphs are included. We have tested…
We review the precision measurement of the mass of the W-boson at LEP. We discuss the techniques used by the four LEP experiments to determine the mass of the W-boson as well as the major sources of systematic uncertainty. The measurement…
The process e+e- -> gamma gamma (gamma) is studied using data collected by the OPAL detector at LEP between the years 1997 and 2000. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 672.3pb-1 at centre-of-mass energies lying between…
We analytically evaluate in the leading logarithm approximation the differential cross section for e^+ e^- -> e^+ \nu_e \bar{u} d. We compare our order \alpha^4 \alpha_s^0 leading-log result to the order \alpha^4 \alpha_s^0 exact result…
The recently completed calculation of the full electroweak O(alpha) corrections to the charged-current four-fermion production processes e+e- --> nu_tau tau+ mu- anti-nu_mu, u anti-d mu- anti-nu_mu, and u anti-d s anti-c is briefly…
The effect of anomalous couplings in $\gamma \gamma \to W^+ W^-$ is studied for different energies of the $\gamma \gamma$ mode of the next linear collider. The analysis based on the maximum likelihood method exploits the variables in the…
Recently full O(alpha_s^2, alpha_s*beta, beta^2) corrections to the threshold total cross section for e+e- to ttbar have been calculated, and the reported corrections turned out to be unexpectedly large. We study how to reduce theoretical…
Inclusive measurement of $J/\Psi$ (DELPHI), search for $\eta_b$ (ALEPH) and measurement of the cross-section of the double-tagged $\gamma\gamma$ events (ALEPH) are briefly overviewed.
We present results of the first calculation of next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections to W-boson pair production at the LHC that fully takes into account leptonic W-boson decays and off-shell effects. Employing realistic event…
I report on recent results for the total production cross section of the process e- e+ -> mu- nubar_mu u dbar X near the W-pair production threshold up to next-to-leading order in GammaW/MW alpha v^2 obtained in the framework of…
We review the results on representing the differential cross section for W-pair production, including W decay and hard-photon bremsstrahlung, in terms of a Born-form approximation of fairly simple analytic form.
