We calculate cross sections for diphoton production in (semi)exclusive $PbPb$ collisions, relevant for the LHC. The calculation is based on equivalent photon approximation in the impact parameter space. The cross sections for elementary…
A general method for computing ${\cal O} (\alpha^2)$ and higher-order next-to-leading photonic corrections is presented and applied to the precision calculation of the small-angle Bhabha scattering cross section in the phase-space region of…
QED processes at electron-positron colliders are considerd. We present differential cross-sections for large-angle Bhabha scattering, annihilation into muons and photons. Radiative corrections in the first order are taken into account…
Precise luminosity measurements for the OLYMPUS two-photon exchange experiment at DESY were performed by counting scattering events with alternating beams of electrons and positrons incident on atomic electrons in a gaseous hydrogen target.…
The recent experimental observation of Light-by-Light (LbL) scattering at the Large Hadron Collider has revived interest in this fundamental process, and especially of the accurate prediction of its cross-section, which we present here for…
Measuring cross-sections at the LHC requires the luminosity to be determined accurately at each centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$. In this paper results are reported from the luminosity calibrations carried out at the LHC interaction point 8…
Elastic light-by-light scattering, $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$, can be measured in electromagnetic interactions of lead (Pb) ions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and Future Circular Collider (FCC), using the large (quasi)real photon…
Based on a paper published in 2019 by the FCAL Collaboration, this talk is giving an update of the Collaboration's effort to design prototype of highly compact calorimeter to instrument the very forward region of a detector at future…
We use a Monte Carlo implementation of recently developped models of exclusive diffractive $W$, top, Higgs and stop productions to assess the sensitivity of the LHC experiments.
A new Monte Carlo model is proposed for radiative corrections to Bhabha scattering by extending QEDPS developed for multi-photon emission in muon pair production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. This is the QED version of the model known as parton…
We present simple analytic expressions for the distributions of the Bhabha scattering process with emission of one hard photon, including weak boson exchanges, and with longitudinal polarization of the initial electron. The results from the…
The computation of the NLO-QCD corrections to the cross sections for W \gamma \gamma production in hadronic collisions is presented. We consider the case of real photons in the final state, but include full leptonic decays of the W.…
The cross-section of (quasi-)elastic large-angle electron-positron scattering at high energies is calculated. Radiative corrections of the orders O(\alpha^2 L^2) and O(\alpha^2 L), besides pure two-loop box contributions, are explicitly…
We review the status of the calculation of next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to large angle Bhabha scattering in pure QED. After discussing the electron-loop and photonic corrections, we focus on the recently calculated two-loop…
An overview of recent results on electroweak precision measurements from the CMS Collaboration is presented. Studies of the weak boson differential transverse momentum spectra, Z boson angular coefficients, forward-backward asymmetry of…
Different options can be used in order to measure the shear from observations in the context of weak lensing. Here we introduce new methods where the isotropy assumption for the distribution of the source galaxies is implemented directly on…
The International Linear Collider (ILC) is a proposed electron-positron collider with a center-of-mass energy of 500~GeV, and a peak luminosity of $2 \cdot 10^{34}~\mathrm{cm}^{-2}\mathrm{s}^{-1}$. The ILC will complement the Large Hadron…
We discuss the possibility of a precision measurement of vacuum polarization in t-channel radiative Bhabha scattering at a high luminosity collider. For illustration, the achievable precision is estimated for the BaBar experiment at PEP-II…
The absolute machine luminosity is a key quantity to achieve the high-precision physics program of future $e^+e^-$ collider. It is determined by measuring a theoretically well-known process, which, ideally, can be computed with arbitrary…
