In this paper preliminary results of the cross-section ratio [Formula: see text] and the forward-backward asymmetry [Formula: see text] are presented for [Formula: see text] final states produced in the reaction [Formula: see text]. They are measured with the DELPHI detector at LEP collision energies ranging from 183 up to a maximum of 209 GeV. Lifetime and secondary vertex information provided by DELPHI's 3-layer microvertex detector are the main ingredients of a tagging variable which is used to separate the quark flavours. High purity selections are made from which Rf and [Formula: see text] are measured. The compatibility of the results with the Standard Model expectations is evaluated.

Data collected with the DELPHI detector at [Formula: see text] up to LEP2 highest energies (i.e. exceeding 205 GeV) have been used to extract preliminary values of the cross-sections for quark-antiquark pair-production in e + e - annihilations. The values found were used to test the Standard Model predictions and to seek for physics beyond it.

The light pseudoscalar boson η is the typical particle predicted by the Simplest Little Higgs (SLH) model. In this paper, we investigate some processes of the associated production of a light pseudoscalar boson η with a pair of top quarks in the SLH model at the International Linear Collider (ILC), i.e. [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We find that the cross-sections of these two processes could reach [Formula: see text] fb in the favorite parameter space in the SLH model, which is consistent with the results of the cross-section of [Formula: see text] in the standard model and the cross-section of [Formula: see text] in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. It should be clear that hundreds to thousands of η can be produced at the ILC per year, these processes of [Formula: see text] are really interesting in testing the standard model and searching the signs of the SLH model.

Data collected with the DELPHI detector at centre-of-mass energies up to the highest values explored by the LEP collider of about 206 GeV have been used to extract preliminary values of the cross-section for the process e+e- → W+W-. The branching ratios of the W decay were also measured; from them the value of |Vcs| was extracted. The results are compared with the most recent calculations in the framework of the Standard Model.

We study the muon pair production e+e-→μ+μ- in the framework of the nonminimal noncommutative standard model (NCSM) to the second-order of the noncommutative (NC) parameter Θμν at linear collider. The [Formula: see text] momentum-dependent NC interaction significantly modifies the cross-section and angular distributions which are different from the standard model. After including the effects of earth's rotation we analyze the time-averaged and time-dependent observables in detail. The time-averaged azimuthal distribution of the cross-section shows significant departure from the standard model which can be tested at the upcoming linear collider. We find strong dependence of total cross-section (time-averaged) and their distributions on the orientation and the magnitude of the NC electric vector (ΘE). Assuming that the future linear collider data will differ from the standard model result by 5%, we obtain Λ≥615 GeV and Λ≥946 GeV corresponding to the machine energy E com = 1000 GeV and 1500 GeV.

The decays W → e ν, Z → e + e - have been studied using the UA2 detector at the CERN [Formula: see text] Collider. Measurements of the Standard Model parameters from a sample of 251 W decays and 39 Z decays are compared with expectations of the Standard Electroweak Model. An upper limit on the number of light neutrino species is deduced from the cross — section ratio σ( W → e ν)/σ( Z → e + e -). A signal of the hadronic decay mode, [Formula: see text], is observed above the background of QCD produced di-jets.

We report preliminary results of a search for substructure in quarks and leptons assuming a four-fermion contact interaction for dielectron pairs of large invariant mass. The search is based on dielectron data collected by the DØ detector in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text]. The results agree well with predictions of the standard model and we obtain model-dependent lower limits at 95% confidence level on the compositeness scale of 3.6 to 9.1 TeV for different chiral models of the composite structure of quarks and electrons.

We discuss W and Z production through the deep inelastic [Formula: see text]-scattering in the context of the standard model SU (3)C× SU (2)L× U (1) of the strong and electroweak interactions. We find the cross-section rates for the process [Formula: see text] for the case of ultrahigh-energy neutrinos (1014 eV ≤Eν≤1017 eV ) colliding on a target nucleon [Formula: see text]. We also calculate [Formula: see text] in order to compare it with [Formula: see text]. We show that the cross-section rates for the process [Formula: see text] did not become so large as one could expect, due to the strong destructive interference between the two different mechanisms which contribute at the lowest order in α (keeping only photon exchange diagrams). This destructive interference mechanism is inherent to the standard model as a non-Abelian gauge theory.

Abstract The K → μ+μ− decay is often considered to be uninformative of fundamental theory parameters since the decay is polluted by long-distance hadronic effects. We demonstrate that, using very mild assumptions and utilizing time-dependent interference effects, ℬ(KS → μ+μ−)ℓ=0 can be experimentally determined without the need to separate the ℓ = 0 and ℓ = 1 final states. This quantity is very clean theoretically and can be used to test the Standard Model. In particular, it can be used to extract the CKM matrix element combination $$ \mid {V}_{ts}{V}_{td}\sin \left(\beta +{\beta}_s\right)\mid \approx \mid {A}^2{\lambda}^5\overline{\eta}\mid $$ ∣ V ts V td sin β + β s ∣ ≈ ∣ A 2 λ 5 η ¯ ∣ with hadronic uncertainties below 1%.

It is pointed out that the y-dependence of the differential cross-section for various types of neutrinos on the electron promises to be a sensitive testing ground of the electroweak Standard Model at KAON in Vancouver. Estimates of the flux requirements are given and the feasibility of such experiments is discussed.
