Three-loop QCD corrections and b-quark decays

John Paul Archambault, Andrzej Czarnecki

We present three-loop (NNNLO) corrections to the heavy-to-heavy quark transitions in the limit of equal initial and final quark masses. In analogy with the previously found NNLO co…

Representation Mixing and Exotic Baryons in the Skyrme Model

Hyun Kyu Lee, Ha Young Park

We study the effect of representation mixing in the SU(3) Skyme model by diagonalizing exactly the representation-dependent part. It is observed that even without the next-to-leadi…

Electric Dipole Moments of Leptons in the Presence of Majorana Neutrinos

John Paul Archambault, Andrzej Czarnecki, Maxim Pospelov

We calculate the two-loop diagrams that give a non-zero contribution to the electric dipole moment d_l of a charged lepton l due to possible Majorana masses of neutrinos. Using the…

Precision Measurements and CKM Unitarity

Andrzej Czarnecki, William J. Marciano, Alberto Sirlin

Determinations of $\vud$ and $\vus$ along with their implications for the unitarity test $\vud^2+\vus^2+\vub^2=1$ are discussed. The leading two loop radiative corrections to neutr…

Non-abelian color dielectric - towards the effective model of the low energy QCD

A. Wereszczynski, M. Slusarczyk

Lattice motivated triplet color scalar field theory is analyzed. We consider non-minimal as well as covariant derivative coupling with SU(2) gauge fields. Field configurations gene…

Two-loop QCD corrections to top quark decay

Maciej Slusarczyk

We present a determination of a new class of Feynman diagrams relevant for second-order QCD corrections to the top quark decay t -> b W. Modern computing techniques allow us to per…

Heavy-to-light decays with a two-loop accuracy

Ian Blokland, Andrzej Czarnecki, Maciej Slusarczyk +1

We present a determination of a new class of three-loop Feynman diagrams describing heavy-to-light transitions. We apply it to find the O(alpha_s^2) corrections to the top quark de…

Differentiating solutions to the gauge hierarchy problem through rare muon decays

David W. Maybury, Brandon Murakami

We demonstrate the potential of forthcoming mu -> e gamma and mu-e conversion experiments to implicate or disfavor solutions to the gauge hierarchy problem before the advent of the…

Lepton Flavour Violation in a Class of Lopsided SO(10) Models

Ernest Jankowski, David W. Maybury

A class of predictive SO(10) grand unified theories with highly asymmetric mass matrices, known as lopsided textures, has been developed to accommodate the observed mixing in the n…
