QED Radiative Corrections to the Non-annihilation Processes Using the Structure Function and the Parton Shower
Inclusion of the QED higher order radiative corrections in the two-photon
process, e+e- -> e+e- mu+mu-, is examined by means of the structure function
and the parton shower. Results are compared with the exact
calculations and give a good agreement. These two methods should be universally
applicable to any other non-annihilation processes like the single-W
productions in the e+e- collisions. In this case, however, the energy scale for
the evolution by the renormalization-group equation should be chosen properly
depending on the dominant diagrams for the given process. A method to find the
most suitable energy scale is proposed.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX, 5 figure
QED Radiative Correction for the Single-W Production using a Parton Shower Method
A parton shower method for the photonic radiative correction is applied to
the single W-boson production processes. The energy scale for the evolution of
the parton shower is determined so that the correct soft-photon emission is
reproduced. Photon spectra radiated from the partons are compared with those
from the exact matrix elements, and show a good agreement. Possible errors due
to a inappropriate energy-scale selection or due to the ambiguity of energy
scale determination are also discussed, particularly for the measurements on
triple gauge-couplings.Comment: 17 pages, 6 Postscript figure
Spin-charge mixing effects on resonant tunneling in a polarized Luttinger Liquid
We investigate spin-charge mixing effect on resonant tunneling in
spin-polarized Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid with double impurities. The mixing
arises from Fermi velocity difference between two spin species due to Zeeman
effect. Zero bias conductance is calculated as a function of gate voltage
, gate magnetic field , temperature and magnetic field
applied to the system. Mixing effect is shown to cause rotation of the lattice
pattern of the conductance peaks in plane, which can be
observed in experiments. At low temperatures, the contour shapes are classified
into three types, reflecting the fact that effective barrier potential is
renormalized towards ``perfect reflection'', ``perfect transmission'' and
magnetic field induced ``spin-filtering'', respectively.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, Sec.I and references largely changed, results

grc4f v1.0: a Four-fermion Event Generator for e+e- Collisions
grc4f is a Monte-Carlo package for generating e+e- to 4-fermion processes in
the standard model. All of the 76 LEP-2 allowed fermionic final state processes
evaluated at tree level are included in version 1.0. grc4f addresses event
simulation requirements at e+e- colliders such as LEP and up-coming linear
colliders. Most of the attractive aspects of grc4f come from its link to the
GRACE system: a Feynman diagram automatic computation system. The GRACE system
has been used to produce the computational code for all final states, giving a
higher level of confidence in the calculation correctness. Based on the
helicity amplitude calculation technique, all fermion masses can be kept finite
and helicity information can be propagated down to the final state particles.
The phase space integration of the matrix element gives the total and
differential cross sections, then unweighted events are Generated. Initial
state radiation (ISR) corrections are implemented in two ways, one is based on
the electron structure function formalism and the second uses the parton shower
algorithm called QEDPS. The latter can also be applied for final state
radiation (FSR) though the interference with the ISR is not yet taken into
account. Parton shower and hadronization of the final quarks are performed
through an interface to JETSET. Coulomb correction between two intermediate
W's, anomalous coupling as well as gluon contributions in the hadronic
processes are also included.Comment: 30 pages, LaTeX, 5 pages postscript figures, uuencode
