We review the present status of QCD corrections to weak decays beyond the leading-
logarithmic approximation, including particle-antiparticle mixing and rare and CP-violating …

Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of quarks and gluons, whose interactions can be
described by a local SU (3) gauge symmetry with charges called “color quantum numbers” …

We present a program to calculate the total cross section for top-quark pair production in
hadronic collisions. The program takes into account recent theoretical developments such …

Describing the fundamental theory of particle physics and its applications, this book provides
a detailed account of the Standard Model, focusing on techniques that can produce …

The measured B¯→ D (*) l ν¯ decay rates for light leptons (l= e, μ) constrain all B¯→ D (*)
semileptonic form factors, by including both the leading and O (Λ QCD/mc, b) subleading …

A bstract We present the first determination of V cb from inclusive\(B\to {X} _c\ell {\overline
{v}} _ {\ell}\) using moments of the dilepton invariant mass, q 2. These moments are …

Since the parton model was introduced by Feynman more than 50 years ago, much has
been learned about the partonic structure of the proton through a large body of high-energy …

Within an effective field theory framework we study heavy-quark–antiquark systems with a
typical distance between the heavy quark and the antiquark smaller than 1/ΛQCD. A suitable …

The present knowledge of QCD confining forces between static test charges is summarised,
with an emphasis on lattice results. Recent developments in relating QCD potentials to …

A certain pattern of divergence of perturbative expansions in quantum field theories, related
to their small and large momentum behaviour, is known as renormalons. We review formal …
