The impact of atomic parity violation experiments on determination of the weak mixing parameter $\sin^2 \theta$ and the Peskin-Takeuchi parameters $S$ and $T$ is reassessed in the light of recent electroweak measurements at LEP, SLAC, and…
The precise measurement of the top quark mass, which is a fundamental SM parameter, constitutes one of the main goals of the LHC top physics program. One approach to measure this quantity uses the $\rho_\mathrm{s}$ distribution, an…
A method is described for the determination of the effective electromagnetic parameters of a metamaterial based only on external measurements or simulations, taking boundary effects at the interfaces between a conventional material and…
We study bound-state effects on the t\bar{t} production cross section in the threshold region at hadron colliders. The bound-state effects are important particularly at the LHC where the gluon fusion is the dominant subprocess. Due to the…
We calculate the electroweak corrections of the order $O({m_t^2\over v^2})$ to the QCD production of $t\bar{t}$ pairs via $q+qbar->t+tbar$ at hadron colliders and show that these corrections to the total production rate are small. This…
We consider for the first time the leading large top mass corrections, arising at higher order in electroweak interactions, to the rare decays $K\to\pi\nu\bar\nu$ and the related modes $B\to X_s\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to l^+l^-$. Higher order…
We perform a global analysis of electroweak precision measurements to find constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model. In particular, we discuss oblique parameters, which are useful to constrain additional matter fields, as well as…
We investigate the effect of near threshold resonances in reactive scattering at low energy. We find a general type of anomalous behavior of the cross sections, and illustrate it with a real system (H$_2$ + Cl). For inelastic processes, the…
We extend and improve upon our previous calculation of electroweak top-quark pair hadroproduction in extensions of the Standard Model with extra heavy neutral and charged spin-1 resonances. In particular, we allow for flavour-non-diagonal…
We investigate the effects of top quark compositeness on various physical parameters, and obtain lower limits on the compositeness scale from electroweak precision data. We consider corrections to top quark decay rates and other physical…
We argue that for a Higgs boson mass M_H ~125 GeV, as suggested by recent Higgs searches at the LHC, the inclusion of electroweak radiative corrections in the relationship between the pole and MS-bar masses of the top quark reduces the…
The total cross section for top quark pair production close to threshold in e+e- annihilation is investigated. Details are given about the calculation at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order. The summation of logarithms leads to a…
The agreement of electroweak measurements with theory places limits on the masses of the top quark and the $W$ boson. It is shown how these limits arise and what constraints various measurements (particularly a top quark mass determination)…
Recent electroweak precision measurements from e+e- and pbarp colliders are presented. Some emphasis is placed on the recent developments in the heavy flavor sector. The measurements are compared to predictions from the Standard Model of…
The cross-section for $\gamma\gamma\to t \bar t$ with arbitrary polarized photons is calculated within the electroweak Standard Model including the complete virtual and soft-photonic $O(\alpha)$ corrections. We present a detailed numerical…
In this paper, we investigate threshold effects associated with swapping of signal and noise subspaces in estimating signal parameters from compressed noisy data. The term threshold effect refers to a sharp departure of mean-squared error…
This note presents constraints on Standard Model parameters using published and preliminary precision electroweak results obtained at the electron-positron colliders LEP and SLC. The results are compared with precise electroweak…
We discuss low energy threshold effects and calculate the sparticle masses in the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We pay particular attention to the top squark and the Higgs mass parameters, and calculate the top…
In the context of the littlest Higgs$(LH)$ model, we study the process $ e^{+}e^{-}\to t\bar{t}$. We find that the new gauge bosons $Z_{H}$ and $B_{H}$ can produce significant correction effects on this process, which can be further…
We compute the top quark threshold contributions to the $\gamma\gamma$ production at the LHC. They appear when the invariant mass of the photon pair, $M_{\gamma\gamma}$ just exceeds two times the mass of the top quark and induce some…
