Electron-positron annihilation into heavy leptons at two loops
We calculate the NNLO QED corrections to the C-even part of differential cross section of e + e − → μ + μ − process. We neglect power corrections in the electron mass and obtain the result in terms of Goncharov’s polylogarithms.

Stabilizing the electroweak vacuum by higher dimensional operators in a Higgs-Yukawa model
The Higgs boson discovery at the LHC with a mass of approximately 126 GeV suggests, that the electroweak vacuum of the standard model may be metastable at very high energies. However, any new physics beyond the standard model can change this picture.

Mixed QCD-EW corrections to W-pair production at electron-positron colliders
The discrepancy between the CDF measurement and the Standard Model theoretical prediction for the W-boson mass underscores the importance of conducting high-precision studies on the W boson, which is one of the predominant objectives of proposed future e

EVAluation of the Equivalent Vector boson Approximation at highest energy colliders
Collider processes at the highest available partonic center-of-mass energies — 10 TeV and above — exhibit a new regime of electroweak interactions where electroweak gauge bosons mostly act as quasi-massless partons in vector boson fusion processes.

Quantum entanglement is quantum: ZZ production at the LHC
Polarization and spin correlations in diboson systems serve as powerful tools for precision tests and searches for new physics. Recently, interpreting these observables through the lens of quantum information, for instance by examining whether the ...

Learning Feynman integrals from differential equations with neural networks
We perform an exploratory study of a new approach for evaluating Feynman integrals numerically. We apply the recently-proposed framework of physics-informed deep learning to train neural networks to approximate the solution to the differential equations ...

VBFNLO: A parton level Monte Carlo for processes with electroweak bosons -- Manual for Version 2.7.0
VBFNLO is a flexible parton level Monte Carlo program for the simulation of vector boson fusion (VBF), QCD induced single and double vector boson production plus two jets, and double and triple vector boson production (plus jet) in hadronic collisions at

Quantum properties of H → VV *: precise predictions in the SM and sensitivity to new physics
We study the quantum properties of the Higgs-boson decays into four fermions via two vector bosons (H → VV * → 4f). In particular, we focus on the case of two different-flavour lepton pairs (H → ZZ * → μ + μ − e + e − ).
