We present the first results of next-to-leading order QCD corrections to three jet heavy quark production at LEP including mass effects. Among other applications, this calculation can be used to extract the bottom quark mass from LEP data,…
The importance of measuring the b-quark mass at different scales is emphasized. The recent next-to-leading order calculation of three jet heavy quark production at LEP and its use to measure $m_b(m_Z)$ is discussed.
Next-to-leading order calculation for three jet heavy quark production in e^+e^- collisions, including complete quark mass effects, is reviewed. Its applications at LEP/SLC are also discussed.
I will review the measurements of the $b$-quark mass performed by ALEPH and DELPHI. A large set of observables has been used together with detailed studies on jet algorithms. Very clear effects due to the $b$-quark mass running are…
The effects induced by the quark masses in three-jet observables have been studied in this thesis. In particular, we have explored a new method: the study of three-jet observables at LEP, different from QCD Sum Rules and Lattice…
We present the calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections for top-quark pair production in association with an additional jet at hadron colliders, using the modified minimal subtraction scheme to renormalize the top-quark…
We present a detailed description of our calculation of next-to-leading order QCD corrections to heavy quark production in e^+ e^- collisions including mass effects. In particular, we study the observables $R_3^{b\ql}$ and $D_2^{b\ql}$ in…
Next-to-leading order calculations of heavy quark three-jet production in e^+ e^- annihilation are reviewed. Their application for the measurement of the b-quark mass at LEP/SLC and to the test of the flavour independence of the strong…
An overview of recent results from LEP concerning the hadronisation process is presented. Emphasis is placed on the $b$-quark. The first presented analysis is the measurement of the $b$-quark fragmentation function. It includes a new,…
In this article I will review the measurements of the b quark mass performed by ALEPH and DELPHI and presented at the HEP99 Conference in Tampere. Very clean effects of the mass running are observed, even if a wide spread in the results and…
We analyze the impact of using $b$-tagged samples in studying non-Abelian effects due to QCD in $e^+e^-\ar 4$jet events at $\sqrt s=M_{Z^0}$, using angular variable analyses and comparisons with $e^+e^-\ar 3 \mbox{jet}\gamma$ events. We…
We present the calculation of the decay width of the Z-boson into three jets including complete quark mass effects to second order in the strong coupling constant. The study is done for different jet clustering algorithms such as EM, JADE,…
A brief review of theoretical and experimental aspects of $b$-quark production measurements at the LHC.
We consider the possibility of extracting the bottom quark mass from LEP data. The inclusive decay rate for $\zbb +\cdots$ is obtained at order $\as$ by summing up the one-loop two-parton decay rate to the tree-level three-parton rate. We…
Next-to-leading order calculations for heavy quark three-jet production in e+e- annihilation are reviewed. Their applications for the measurement of the b-quark mass at LEP/SLC and for the test of flavour independence of the strong coupling…
The effect of the heavy b-quark mass on the two, three and four-jet rates is studied using LEP data collected by the DELPHI experiment at the Z peak in 1994 and 1995. The rates of b-quark jets and light quark jets (l = uds) in events with n…
I discuss one-loop QCD corrections to the forward backward asymmetry of the b-quark at LEP in a way appropriate to the present experimental procedure. I try to give insight into the structure of the corrections and elucidate some questions…
We have studied the determination of the running b-quark mass, $m_b(M_Z)$, using $Z^0$ decays into 3 or more hadronic jets. We calculated the ratio of $\geq3$-jet fractions in $e^+e^-\to b\bar{b}$ vs. $e^+e^-\to q_l\bar{q_l}$ ($q_l$ = u or…
We compute the primary Lund plane density for jets initiated by a massive ($b$) quark to single logarithmic accuracy in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In order to capture mass effects, we consider quasi-collinear factorisation and we include…
I review in this presentation some aspects of phenomenology in High Energy Physics which are related to recent and possibly future progress in lattice QCD. In particular, I cover (i) the extraction of CKM matrix elements from B physics,…
