چکیده
We discuss the form of the amplitude for gauge boson pair production at or near threshold.We show that in the case of W-pair production at LEP2 near threshold only one anomalous electromagnetic coupling can contribute. This anomalous coupling is CP violating and contributes to the electric dipole moment of the W. Since this coupling is likely to be small, it is important to look for ZZγ couplings in Zγ production. These couplings are not suppressed at the W threshold.

The decay width of the Z gauge boson into three jets has already been computed at the leading order (LO) including complete quark mass effects [1–3] where it has been shown that mass effects could be as large as 1% to 6%, depending on the value of the mass and the jet resolution parameter yc. In fact, these effects had already been seen in the experimental tests of the flavor independence of th...

We demonstrate that Higgs boson production in fusion processes is accompanied by large azimuthal asymmetry. This asymmetry can be used to facilitate detection of Higgs boson events. We also demonstrate that the double Higgs boson production at threshold is a very appropriate process to test the existence of new physics at higher energy .

The status of the standard model is briefly reviewed in the light of the most recent set of experimental data, with particular emphasis to the limits on the Higgs boson mass. The search for a light Higgs boson at LEP 2 is also briefly analyzed.

The studies of Fermi–Dirac correlations of ΛΛ and ¯ Λ ¯ Λ pairs in hadronic Z decays, Bose–Einstein correlations and colour reconnection in W-pairs decays performed by the ALEPH collaboration in e + e − annihilation at LEP are presented. The OPAL analysis of Bose–Einstein correlations in W-pair decays is also discussed.

We describe classical solutions to the Minkowski space equations of motion of SU(2) gauge theory coupled to a Higgs field in the spatial spherical ansatz. We show how to reduce the equations to four equations for four gauge invariant degrees of freedom which correspond to the massive gauge bosons and the Higgs particle. The solutions typically dissipate at very early and late times. To describe...
