Dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking (DEWSB) has been a viable option for the completion of the standard model for over thirty years. Precision electroweak studies indicate that the new strong interactions that break EW symmetry cannot…
Experiments using high-power lasers and relativistic electron beams will soon be capable of precision testing of the theory of strong-field quantum electrodynamics. The comparison between experiment and theory always occurs via numerical…
The theory relevant to the study of matter in equilibrium with the radiation field is thermal quantum electrodynamics (TQED). We present a formulation of the theory, suitable for non relativistic fluids, based on a joint functional integral…
The q-electroweak theory obtained by replacing SU(2) by $SU_q(2)$ in the Weinberg-Salam model is experimentally not distinguishable from the standard model at the level of the doublet representation. However, differences between the two…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with a general number of colors, $\Nc$, provides a powerful theoretical laboratory to explore the dynamics of non-Abelian gauge theories. Although $\Nc =3$ does not look a large number, the $1/\Nc$ expansion…
We have investigated the spectra of light-heavy quarkonia with the use of a quantum-chromodynamic potential model which is similar to that used earlier for the heavy quarkonia. An essential feature of our treatment is the inclusion of the…
A review is given of attempts to bridge the gap between everyday particle and nuclear physics - involving many quarks - and the basic underlying theory of QCD that can only be evaluated exactly for few quark systems. Even the latter…
We have performed an overall fit to the electroweak data with the generation blind $U(1)$ extension of the Standard Model. As input data for fitting we have included the asymmetry parameters, the particle decay widths of $Z$, neutrino…
The numerical technique of Lattice QCD holds the promise of connecting the nuclear forces, nuclei, the spectrum and structure of hadrons, and the properties of matter under extreme conditions with the underlying theory of the strong…
The present status of quantum electrodynamics (QED) theory of heavy few-electron ions is reviewed. The theoretical results are compared with available experimental data. A special attention is focused on tests of QED at strong fields and on…
Electromagnetic effects are increasingly being accounted for in lattice quantum chromodynamics computations. Because of their long-range nature, they lead to large finite-size effects over which it is important to gain analytical control.…
We investigate the modification of the transverse electromagnetic interaction between two point-like particles when one particle acquires a finite size. It is shown that the correct treatment of such interaction cannot be accomplished…
Based on recent $W$-mass measurements, the electroweak theory is tested at non-trivial quantum correction level, i.e., beyond the Born approximation with $\alpha(M_Z)$ instead of $\alpha$. We can conclude that some non-Born type corrections…
This chapter, to appear in the section on QCD under extreme conditions within the Encyclopedia of Nuclear Physics, aims to provide a pedagogical introduction to the physics of quarks and gluons in the presence of high temperature, nonzero…
Recent achievements in the heavy quark theory are critically reviewed. The emphasis is put on those aspects which either did not attract enough attention or cause heated debates in the current literature. Among other topics we discuss (i)…
We develop a field-quantization scheme for calculating quantum electrodynamic effects on polarizabilities of light atomic systems. This scheme is based on the theory of long-wavelength quantum electrodynamics of Pachucki [Phys. Rev. A…
It is well known that technicolor models in which the electroweak symmetry is broken by QCD-like strong dynamics at the TeV scale generally predict unacceptably large corrections to low-energy observables. We investigate the models of…
One of the overarching goals of nuclear physics is to rigorously compute properties of hadronic systems directly from the fundamental theory of strong interactions, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, the hope is to perform…
In this thesis we deal with different aspects of quantum field theory, particularly in non-perturbative but also perturbative regimes, applied to the intellectual construction that is the Standard Model for Particle Physics (SM), but also…
I consider the possibility that electroweak symmetry is broken by a strongly interacting chiral gauge theory. I argue that some of the discrepancies between precision electroweak measurements and the predictions of QCD-like technicolor…
