Supersymmetric QCD corrections to e+e−→tbˉH−e^+e^-\to t\bar{b}H^- and the Bernstein-Tkachov method of loop integration

The discovery of charged Higgs bosons is of particular importance, since their existence is predicted by supersymmetry and they are absent in the Standard Model (SM). If the charged Higgs bosons are too heavy to be produced in pairs at future linear colliders, single production associated with a top and a bottom quark is enhanced in parts of the parameter space. We present the next-to-leading-order calculation in supersymmetric QCD within the minimal supersymmetric SM (MSSM), completing a previous calculation of the SM-QCD corrections. In addition to the usual approach to perform the loop integration analytically, we apply a numerical approach based on the Bernstein-Tkachov theorem. In this framework, we avoid some of the generic problems connected with the analytical method.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.

On the kinematics of the last Wigner particle

Wigner's particle classification provides for "continuous spin" representations of the Poincaré group, corresponding to a class of (as yet unobserved) massless particles. Rather than building their induced realizations by use of "Wigner rotations" in the textbooks' way, here we exhibit a scalar-like first-quantized form of those (bosonic) Wigner particles directly, by combining wave equations proposed by Wigner long ago with a recent prequantized treatment employing Poisson structures.The European Union's Horizon/[690575]//UniónEuropeaUniversidad de Costa Rica/[820-B8-225]/UCR/Costa RicaUCR::Vicerrectoría de Docencia::Ciencias Básicas::Facultad de Ciencias::Escuela de MatemáticaUCR::Vicerrectoría de Investigación::Unidades de Investigación::Ciencias Básicas::Centro de investigaciones Matemáticas y Metamatemáticas (CIMM
