The weak gravitational lensing of distant galaxies by large-scale structure is expected to become a powerful probe of dark energy. By measuring the ellipticities of large numbers of background galaxies, the subtle gravitational distortion…
We calculate the parameters describing elastic $I=1$, $P$-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering using lattice QCD with $2+1$ flavors of clover fermions. Our calculation is performed with a pion mass of $m_\pi \approx 320\:\:{\rm MeV}$ and a lattice size…
We obtain predictions for $B_{(s)}\to e^+e^-\gamma$ and $B_{(s)}\to \mu^+\mu^-\gamma$ decays. All the contributions containing long-distance QCD effects are calculated in the framework of relativistic quark model. The contributions of the…
Attempts to measure the variability of the fine structure constant alpha over cosmological time, using spectra of high redshift quasars have produced conflicting results. We use the Many Multiplet (MM) method with Mg II and Fe II lines on…
Absorption line systems detected in quasar spectra can be used to compare the value of the fine-structure constant, {\alpha}, measured today on Earth with its value in distant galaxies. In recent years, some evidence has emerged of small…
The inclusive production of four isolated charged leptons in $pp$ collisions is analysed for the presence of hard double-parton scattering, using 20.2 fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded in the ATLAS detector at the LHC at centre-of-mass energy…
We extend the QCD sum rule analysis of the \gamma^*\gamma^* -->\pi^o form factor into the region where one of the photons has small virtuality: q^2 << Q^2 > 1 GeV^2. In this kinematics, one should perform an additional factorization of…
A high precision determination of the strong coupling constant in the MS-bar scheme at the Z-mass scale, using low energy quantities, namely pion/kaon decay constants and masses, as experimental input is presented. The computation employs…
We present a non-perturbative computation of the running of the coupling alpha_s in QCD with two flavours of dynamical fermions in the Schroedinger functional scheme. We improve our previous results by a reliable continuum extrapolation.…
Based on a sample of 500 million $e^+e^- \to c\bar c$ events recorded by the BaBar detector at c.m. energies of close to 10.6 GeV, we report on a study of the decay $D^0 \to \pi^- e^+ \nu_e$. We measure the ratio of branching fractions $R_D…
We present the estimate of the branching ratio for the rare decay $\bar B^0\to D^*\gamma$. We use QCD factorization approach in order to compute the amplitude of the process. The calculation is carried out with the leading order accuracy. %…
Three different strategies to extract the weak mixing phase phi_s of the Bs system using B--> VV decays (Bs--> K* anti-K*, Bs--> phi anti-K* and Bs--> phi phi) are discussed. Those penguin-mediated decays are computed in the framework of a…
A study of the energy dependence of event shape observables is presented. The strong coupling constant \alpha_s has been determined from the mean values of six event shape observables. Power corrections, employed for the measurement of…
We present an updated determination of the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the running of the electromagnetic coupling $\Delta\alpha_{\mathrm{had}}^{(5)}(-Q^2)$, and of the electroweak mixing angle in the space-like momentum…
Hard diffractive electroproduction of longitudinally polarized vector mesons is calculated within the leading $\alpha_s\ln{Q^2\over\Lambda_{QCD}^2}$ approximation of QCD using the leading order parton densities within the nucleon. Novel QCD…
We reevaluate the hadronic contribution to the running of the QED fine structure constant alpha(s) at s = M_Z^2. We use data from e+e- annihilation and tau decays at low energy and at the qq-bar thresholds, where resonances occur. Using…
We calculate the lowest even isovector moment of the $F_2$ structure function in $2+1$-flavour lattice QCD with varying quark masses corresponding to $m_\pi \approx [410, 360, 300] \; {\rm MeV}$, at a fixed volume of $V = 48^3 \times 96$…
Measurements of the differential branching fraction and angular moments of the decay $B^0 \to K^+ \pi^- \mu^+ \mu^-$ in the $K^+\pi^-$ invariant mass range $1330<m(K^+ \pi^-)<1530~MeV/c^2$ are presented. Proton-proton collision data are…
In this talk I describe work on computing non-leptonic matrix elements consistently with both long and short distance contributions included. On the simpler example of the $\pi^+$-$\pi^0$ mass difference I explain in detail the matching…
QCD corrections to order alpha_s in the soft-gluon approximation to angular distributions of decay charged leptons in the process e+e- -> t tbar followed by semileptonic decay of t or tbar, are obtained in the e+e- centre-of-mass frame. As…
