General one-loop formulas for decay
Radiative corrections to the are evaluated in the
one-loop approximation. The unitary gauge gauge is used. The analytic result is
expressed in terms of the Passarino-Veltman functions. The calculations are
applicable for the Standard Model as well for a wide class of its gauge
extensions. In particular, the decay width of a charged Higgs boson can be derived. The consistence of our formulas and
several specific earlier results is shown.Comment: 33 pages, 3 figures, a new section (V) and references were improved

Prototype Backscatter Moessbauer Spectrometer for Measurement of Martian Surface Mineralogy
We have designed and successfully tested a prototype of a backscatter Moessbauer spectrometer (BaMS) targeted for use on the Martian surface to (1) determine oxidation states of iron, and (2) identify and determine relative abundances of iron-bearing mineralogies. No sample preparation is required to perform measurements; it is only necessary to bring sample and instrument into physical contact. The prototype meets our projected specification for a flight instrument in terms of mass, power, and volume. A Moessbauer spectrometer on the Martian surface would provide wide variety of information about the current state of the Martian surface, and this information is described
