The present status of lattice calculations of $f_D$, $f_B$ and some mass splittings are discussed. When one includes the uncertainties due to discretization errors, the results do not yet have a sufficient precision to be relevant to…
If supersymmetry exists at the electroweak scale, then it should be discovered at the LHC. Determining masses, of supersymmetric particles however, is more difficult. In this paper, methods are discussed to determine combinations of masses…
We contrast the sparticle spectra obtained from three modern publicly available codes along model lines in minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) parameter space. From this we gain an idea of the uncertainties involved with sparticle…
We systematically study the possibility of determining the spin of new particles after their discovery at the LHC. We concentrate on angular correlations in cascade decays. Motivated by constraints of electroweak precision tests and the…
The higher-dimensional version of Kannan and Lipton's Orbit Problem asks whether it is decidable if a target subspace can be reached from a starting point under repeated application of a linear transformation. Similarly, the continuous…
At future e+- e- linear colliders, the event rates and clean signals of scalar fermion production - in particular for the scalar leptons - allow very precise measurements of their masses and couplings and the determination of their quantum…
Several key observables of the high-precision physics program at future lepton colliders will critically depend on the knowledge of the absolute machine luminosity. The determination of the luminosity relies on the precise knowledge of some…
A straightforward new technique is introduced which enables measurement at hadron colliders of an analytical combination of the masses of pair-produced semi-invisibly decaying particles and their invisible decay products. The new technique…
I consider the two-body decay of a particle at a hadron collider into a visible and an invisible particle, generalizing $W \to e \nu$, where the masses of the decaying particle and the invisible decay particle are, {\em a priori}, unknown.…
After discussing the intrinsic ambiguity in determining the light quark mass ratio $m_u/m_d$, we reexamine the recent proposal that this ambiguity can be resolved by applying the QCD multipole expansion for the heavy quarkonium decays. It…
Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) might test the picture of supersymmetric Grand Unification in particle physics. We argue that the identification of gaugino masses is the most promising step in this direction. Mass predictions…
The determination of the masses of Supersymmetric particles such as the Selectron for energies above threshold using the energy end-points method is subject to signal deconvolution difficulties and to Standard Model and Supersymmetric…
The corrections to the current algebra mass formulae for the pseudoscalar mesons are analyzed by means of a simultaneous exansion in powers of the light quark masses and powers of 1/N. A set of mass formulae is derived, including an…
Future lepton colliders will have a rich top quark physics program which would add to our understanding of this interesting quark and promise an ultimate precision on the experimental knowledge of top-quark mass. We present possible…
We consider the $CP$ violating asymmetries produced in the decay of heavy particles, studying the effects of heavy particle mixing for arbitrary mass splittings. A considerable enhancement of the asymmetries is achieved when the masses of…
We consider the mass measurement at hadron colliders for a decay chain of two steps, which ends with a missing particle. Such a topology appears as a subprocess of signal events of many new physics models which contain a dark matter…
The equations for the second-order gravitational perturbations produced by a compact-object have highly singular source terms at the point particle limit. At this limit the standard retarded solutions to these equations are ill-defined.…
The present paper deals with the existence and uniqueness of global classical solutions to the continuous coagulation and nonlinear multiple fragmentation equations for large classes of unbounded coagulation, collision and breakup kernels.…
We propose a class of kinematic variables, which is a smooth generalization of min-max type mass variables such as the Cambridge-$M_{T2}$ and $M_2$, for measuring a mass spectrum of intermediate resonances in a semi-invisibly decaying pair…
The determination of supersymmetric parameters at the LHC in favorable as well as difficult scenarios is presented. If discovered and measured at the LHC and the ILC, supersymmetry may provide a link between collider physics and cosmology.
