چکیده
The graphical method discussed previously can be used to create new gauges not reachable by the path-integral formalism. By this means a new gauge is designed for more efficient two-loop QCD calculations. It is related to but simpler than the ordinary background-field gauge, in that even the triple-gluon vertices for internal lines contain only four terms, not the usual six. This reduction simplifies the calculation inspite of the necessity to include other vertices for compensation. Like the ordinary background-field gauge, this generalized background-field gauge also preserves gauge invariance of the external particles. As a check of the result and an illustration for the reduction in labour, an explicit calculation of the two-loop QCD β-function is carried out in this new gauge. It results in a saving of 45% of computation compared to the ordinary background-field gauge.

I discuss the applicability of classical techniques to the study of the dynamics of infrared, bosonic fields at the electroweak phase transition. I present the lattice as a natural means of cutting off hard, nonclassical modes, and discuss the problem of integrating out the excluded modes perturbatively. I then apply the classical lattice technique to study the dynamics of the phase interface (...

In these Lectures, we present a pedagogical introduction to weak scale supersymmetry phenomenology. A basic understanding of the Standard Model and of the ideas behind Grand Unification, but no prior knowledge of supersymmetry, is assumed. Topics covered include: • What is supersymmetry and why do we bother with it? • Working with a supersymmetric theory: A toy example

We describe a theoretical approach to compute inclusive widths of heavy hadrons, based on a systematic expansion in the inverse powers of the heavy quark mass. The method reproduces quite well the experimental ratios of B mesons lifetimes. As for τ (Λb)/τ (Bd), we present a QCD sum rule calculation of the O(m −3 b ) contribution to τ (Λb); we conclude that such correction is not responsible of ...

We have derived the popularly used mass parametrization formula for light quarks and modified the corresponding formula for strange quarks with the mass-densitydependent model. A simple expression for the critical density of phase transition of strange quark matter at zero temperature is thus found and its value is estimated to be over 6 times the normal nuclear density.
