There is accumulating evidence that (fundamental) scalar fields may exist in nature. The
gravitational collapse of such a boson cloud would lead to a boson star (BS) as a new type …

After an introduction recalling the theoretical motivation for low energy (100GeV to TeV
scale) supersymmetry, this review describes the theory and experimental implications of the …

We present the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections to the total cross section for
(pseudo-) scalar Higgs boson production using an alternative method than those used in …

The four LEP Collaborations, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL, have collected a total of 2461
pb− 1 of e+ e− collision data at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. The …

We show that a gauge singlet scalar S, with a coupling to the Higgs doublet of the form λ
SS† SH† H and with the S mass entirely generated by the Higgs expectation value, has a …

If the Higgs mass mH is as low as suggested by present experimental information, the
Standard Model ground state might not be absolutely stable. We present a detailed analysis …

We consider QCD corrections to Higgs boson production through gluon–gluon fusion in
hadron collisions. Using the recently evaluated [14] two-loop amplitude for this process and …

The contributions of virtual corrections and soft gluon emission to the inclusive Higgs
production cross section pp-> H+ X are computed at next-to-next-to-leading order in the …

We present the full next-to-leading order corrected differential distributions d 2σ/(dp Tdy),
dσ/dpT and dσ/dy for the semi-inclusive process p+ p→ H+′ X′. Here X denotes the …

We extend previous combinations of LEP and cosmological relic density constraints on the
parameter space of the constrained MSSM, with universal input supersymmetry-breaking …
