Status of the BabaYaga event generator [PDF]
The Monte Carlo event generator BabaYaga has been developed for high precision simulation of QED processes (e+e−→ e+ e− , e+e−→ µ+µ− and e+e−→ γγ) at flavour factories, chiefly for luminometry purposes, with an estimated theoretical accuracy at the 0.1 ...

Higher-order QED corrections to single-W production in electron-positron collisions [PDF]
Four-fermion processes with a particle lost in the beam pipe are studied at LEP to perform precision tests of the electroweak theory. Leading higher-order QED corrections to such processes are analyzed within the framework of the Structure Functions (SF)

Rational terms of UV origin at two loops
The advent of efficient numerical algorithms for the construction of one-loop amplitudes has played a crucial role in the automation of NLO calculations, and the development of similar algorithms at two loops is a natural strategy for NNLO automation ...

NNLO virtual and real leptonic corrections to muon-electron scattering
The recently proposed MUonE experiment at CERN aims at providing a novel determination of the leading order hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment through the study of elastic muon-electron scattering at relatively small momentum ...

The two-loop perturbative correction to the (g − 2) μ HLbL at short distances
The short-distance behaviour of the hadronic light-by-light (HLbL) contribution to (g − 2) μ has recently been studied by means of an operator product expansion in a background electromagnetic field.

PROBING HIGH-ENERGY PHYSICS WITH HIGH-PRECISION QED MEASUREMENTS [PDF]
I summarize our self-contained determinations of the lowest order hadronic contributions to the anomalous magnetic moments a_{ , } of the muon and tau leptons, the running QED coupling (M_Z) and the muonium hyperfine splitting . Using as a revised estimate of the light-by light scattering: a_ (LL)=85(18) 10^{-11}, we deduce: a_ ^{SM} = 116 591 ...

Isospin-breaking effects in the three-pion contribution to hadronic vacuum polarization
Isospin-breaking (IB) effects are required for an evaluation of hadronic vacuum polarization at subpercent precision. While the dominant contributions arise from the e + e − → π + π − channel, also IB in the subleading channels can become relevant for a ...

QED effects in molecules: test on rotational quantum states of H$_2$ [PDF]
Quantum electrodynamic effects have been systematically tested in the progression of rotational quantum states in the $X ^{1}\Sigma_{g}^{+}, v=0$ vibronic ground state of molecular hydrogen. High-precision Doppler-free spectroscopy of the $EF ^{1}\Sigma_{

Isospin-breaking effects in the two-pion contribution to hadronic vacuum polarization
Isospin-breaking (IB) effects in the two-pion contribution to hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) can be resonantly enhanced, if related to the interference of the ρ(770) and ω(782) resonances.

Vacuum birefringence in strong inhomogeneous electromagnetic fields [PDF]
Birefringence is one of the fascinating properties of the vacuum of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in strong electromagnetic fields. The scattering of linearly polarized incident probe photons into a perpendicularly polarized mode provides a distinct ...
