I discuss the calculation of cross sections for processes with six and eight fermions in the final state, contributing to single-top production and associated top-Higgs production at a linear collider. I describe the schemes for the treatment of finite decay widths implemented in the matrix element generator O’Mega and give a numerical comparison for single-top production. In the case of single...

We compute non-perturbative contributions to B → Xs l+l− that are not explicitly suppressed by powers of the b-quark mass. They are proportional to 〈B|hσ·Gh|B〉 and arise from an interference between the free-quark amplitude and higher order terms in the matrix element of the four-quark operator sγ(1 − γ5)cα cγμ(1 − γ5)bβ . This correction is found to be small over most of the dalitz plot except...

This paper deals with the finite element solution of the convection diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. Two main techniques are adopted and compared. The first one includes Petrov-Galerkin based on Lagrangian tensor product elements in conjunction with streamlined upwinding. The second approach represents Bubnov/Petrov-Galerkin schemes based on a new group of exponential elements. It ...

This paper poses two magnetostatic problems in cylindrical coordinates with different permeabilities for each region. In the first problem the boundary condition of the second kind is used while in the second one, the boundary condition of the third kind is utilized. These problems are solved using the finite element and finite difference methods. In second problem, the results of the finite di...

this research work is devoted to the footprint analysis of a steel-belted radial tyre (185/65r14) under vertical static load using finite element method. two models have been developed in which in the first model the tread patterns were replaced by simple ribs while the second model was consisted of details of the tread blocks. linear elastic and hyper elastic (arruda-boyce) material models wer...

in this article, we study the new streamline diffusion finite element for treating the linear second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem. we prove a posteriori $ l^2(l^2)$ and error estimates for this method under minimal regularity hypothesis. test problem of an application of the wave equation in the laser is presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the method.
