Photon Bremsstrahlung in Collision of High-energy Electrons
Single bremsstrahlung occurring upon collision of high-energy electrons is considered. The angular distribution and the spectrum of the emitted photons is calculated in the c.m.s. and in the lab., and the radiation of the incoming particle and of the recoil particle is considered in the latter system. The method of the classical currents and the Weizsacker-Williams method are analyzed. It is shown that the latter is applicable to the calculation of the spectrum of the recoil photons emitted by the particle when w > m/2.

On the sensitivity of the inclusive distributions in parton jets to the coherence effects in QCD gluon cascades
The KNO multiplicity distributions and properties of two-particle correlations in QCD jets are considered in the framework of the perturbative approach accounting for effects of the coherence in the soft gluon bremsstrahlung.

Radiative corrections to the hadronic cross-section measurement at DA$\Phi$NE
Abstract. The hadronic invariant mass distribution for the process of electron–positron annihilation into a pair of charged pions accompanied by a photon radiated from the initial state has been studied for the region of DA$\Phi$NE energies. The Born cross–section and the electromagnetic radiative corrections to it are calculated for realistic conditions of the KLOE detector. The dependence on the physical parameters which define the event selection is obtained.

QCD Interconnection Effects
Heavy objects like the W, Z and t are short-lived compared with typical hadronization times. When pairs of such particles are produced, the subsequent hadronic decay systems may therefore become interconnected. We study such potential effects at Linear Collider energies.

Pomeron universality from identical pion correlations at the LHC
Abstract Bose–Einstein correlations of identical pions produced in high-energy pp collisions at the LHC allow a probe of the Pomeron exchange mechanism. The size of the domain which emits the pions depends on the multiplicity of events, but not on the collider energy. This confirms the universal structure of Pomeron exchange. The data at relatively low multiplicities indicate that the size of the source created by one-Pomeron exchange is much less than the size of the proton.

Fermion number violation in the background of a gauge field in Minkowski space
Abstract Anomalous fermion number violation is studied in the background of a pure SU(2) gauge field in Minkowski space using the method of N. Christ. It is demonstrated that the chiral fermion number is violated by at most an integer amount. Then the method is applied for a spherically symmetric Minkowski space classical gauge field in the background. These classical gauge fields are finite energy solutions to pure SU(2) equations of motion with in general non-integer topological charge. We show that in the classical background which during a finite time-interval matches such solutions the fermion number violation is integer and non-zero. In particular, we calculate the violation of the fermiion number in the presence of Luscher-Schechter solutions. The meaning of the anomaly equation and applications to QCD and electroweak theory are briefly discussed. We also comment on the relation of the results of this paper to the previous work.

Direct SUSY Searches at the LHC in the light of LEP Higgs bounds
A bstractIn this note we compare the latest 1.04 fb−1 LHC searches for squarks and gluinos from jets and missing transverse momentum (MET) with constraints arising from the LEP Higgs bound. For General Gauge Mediation models with moderate values of tan(β) we find that the zero-lepton MET searches of supersymmetry at the LHC are only starting to be competitive with the Higgs bounds from LEP. From this perspective and for such models, the SUSY searches at the LHC are still very much in the beginning.

Travels on the squark-gluino mass plane
Institut fur Theoretische Physik, Universitat Heidelberg, Germany(Dated: September 12, 2011)Soft supersymmetry breaking appears in the weak-scale e ective action but is usually generated athigher scales. For these models the structure of the renormalization group evolution down to theelectroweak scale leaves only part of the squark-gluino and slepton-gaugino mass planes accessible.Our observations divide these physical mass planes into three wedges: the rst can be reached byall models of high-scale breaking; the second can only be populated by models with a low mediationscale; in the third wedge squarks and gluinos would have to be described by an exotic theory. Allusual benchmark points reside in the rst wedge, even though an LHC discovery in the third wedge

On Affleck-Dine-Seiberg superpotential and magnetic monopoles in supersymmetric QCD
Certain exact results in supersymmetric gauge theories are generated by non-perturbative effects different from instantons. In supersymmetric QCD with N colours and NF fundamental flavours we examine the Affleck-Dine-Seiberg (ADS) superpotential using controlled semi-classical analysis. We show how for NF< N ? 1 the ADS superpotential arises from monopole contributions to the path integral of the supersymmetric gauge theory compactified on 3 ? S1. These are the monopole effects leading to gaugino condensation and confinement of the low-energy SU(N?NF) supersymmetric gauge theory.

Higher twist effects in the Drell‐Yan process
We calculate the angular distribution of the lepton produced in the Drell‐Yan reaction taking into account pion bound state effects. We work in the kinematic region where one of the pion constituents goes far off shell, which allows us to treat the bound state problem pertubatively. We show that the angular distribution is very sensitive to the shape of the pion distribution amplitude. The model we discuss fits the data if we choose a two‐humped pion distribution amplitude suggested by QCD sum rules.
