QCD corrections to charged-current decays with Heavy Sterile Neutrinos in initial or final state and their impact on decays

Tim Kretz, Ulrich Nierste

Searches for a Heavy Sterile Neutrino profit from precise predictions of inclusive decay rates, entering predictions for branching fractions and lifetime. Once decay channels i…

Next-to-next-to-leading QCD corrections to the -, -, and - lifetime ratios

Francesco Moretti, Ulrich Nierste, Pascal Reeck +1

The total decay widths of heavy mesons can be systematically calculated in terms of an expansion in the two parameters and , where denotes the heavy quar…

Decay matrix of B-\bar{B} mixing: Mixing of dimension-seven operators into dimension-six operators under renormalization

Artyom Hovhannisyan, Ulrich Nierste

The precise measurement of the width difference ΔΓ_s among the mass eigenstates of the B_s-\bar{B}_s system requires the calculation of the corresponding decay matrix to order α…

TeV-scale scalar leptoquarks motivated by B anomalies improve Yukawa unification in SO(10) GUT

Xiyuan Gao, Ulrich Nierste

It is common practice to explain deviations between data and Standard-Model (SM) predictions by postulating new particles at the TeV scale ad-hoc. This approach becomes much more c…

Complete next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the decay matrix in -meson mixing at leading power

Ulrich Nierste, Pascal Reeck, Vladyslav Shtabovenko +1

We compute next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to the decay width difference of mass eigenstates and the charge-parity (CP) asymmetry in flavour-specific decays…

CP Violation in Charmed Meson Decays into Final States with

Carolina Bolognani, Ulrich Nierste, Stefan Schacht +1

We derive Standard Model predictions for the CP asymmetries of singly-Cabibbo suppressed decays, where . Our predictions are based on the approximate SU…
