On the CP-odd Nucleon Potential
The CP-odd nucleon potential for different models of CP violation in the one meson exchange approximation is studied. It is shown that the main contribution is due to the $\pi$-meson exchange which leads to a simple one parameter CP-odd nucleon potential.

Infrared Corrections to the Top Quark Width
We present a nonperturbative analysis of the top quark propagator using the Schwinger Dyson equation in the ladder approximation including both the electroweak as well as the infrared QCD effects. We find that the infrared effects are negligible only for top mass larger than about 250 GeV.

Tightly Bound Composite Higgs
We explain general features of the tightly bound composite Higgs models proposed in recent years; walking technicolor, strong ETC technicolor, and a top quark condensate, etc.. These models are all characterized by the large anomalous dimension due to nontrivial short distance dynamics in the gauged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio ...

An Analysis of the Decay $B \rightarrow D^* X \ell \bar\nu_\ell$ with Predictions from Heavy Quark and Chiral Symmetry
This paper considers the implications of the heavy quark and chiral symmetries for the semi-leptonic decay $B \rightarrow D^* X \ell \bar \nu_\ell$. The general kinematic analysis for decays of the form {\sl pseudoscalar meson $\rightarrow$ vector meson $+$ pseudoscalar meson $+$ lepton $+$ anti-lepton} is presented. T...

Interpretation of the Color Transparency Experiments
We argue that the experimentally measured color transparency ratio is directly related to the interacting hadron wave function at small transverse separation, $b^2<1/Q^2$.

Global Constraints of Gauss' Law and the Solution to the Strong CP Problem
This is a brief review on the work done recently. It is shown that the global constraints of Gauss' law ensure that the vacuum angle must be quantized in gauge theories with magnetic monopoles.

QCD Corrections to Higgs Boson Production
We discuss the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ QCD radiative corrections to Higgs boson production in the limit in which the top quark is much heavier than the Higgs boson. The subleading corrections, of ${\cal O} (\alpha_s M_H^2/M_{\rm top}^2)$, are presented for the decay $H\rightarrow \gamma\gamma$ and shown to be small.

Flavor Changing Neutral Currents in a Realistic Composite Technicolor Model
We consider the phenomenology of a composite technicolor model proposed recently by Georgi. Composite technicolor interactions produce four-quark operators in the low energy theory that contribute to flavor changing neutral current processes. While we expect operators of this type to be induced at the compositeness sca...

Quark-Lepton Symmetry
Quark-lepton symmetric models are a class of gauge theories motivated by the similarities between the quarks and leptons. In these models the gauge group of the standard model is extended to include a ``color'' group for the leptons. Consequently, the quarks and leptons can then be related by a $Z_2$ discrete quark-lep...
