High-colour pomerons with a running coupling constant in the Hartree-Fock approximation
The Hartree-Fock approximation is applied to study the "high-colour pomerons" in the system of many reggeized gluons with a running QCD coupling constant. It is shown that, contrary to the fixed coupling case, the high-colour pomerons result supercritical, although with a smaller intercept than the multipomeron states.

Nonoblique Corrections in Technicolor Theories Revisited
In extended technicolor (ETC) theories, while the sideways ETC boson exchange decreases the width $\Gamma_b \equiv \Gamma (Z\rightarrow b \bar{b})$, the flavor-diagonal ETC boson exchange tends to increase it, and the ETC-corrected $R_b \equiv \Gamma_b / \Gamma_{\mbox{\footnotesize had}}$ value could agree with recent ...

Thermal Self-Energies at Zero Momentum
In general the zero momentum limit of thermal self-energies calculated in perturbation theory depends on the order in which the time and the space components of the momentum are taken to zero. We show that this is an artifact of the perturbative calculation, and in fact the non-analyticity of the one-loop self-energy d...

Some Phenomenological Implications of String Loop Effects
We investigate low energy implications of string loop corrections to supergravity couplings which break a possible flavor universality of the tree level. If Supersymmetry is broken by the dilaton $F$-term, universal soft scalar masses arise at the leading order but string loop corrections generically induce flavor-non-...

Kaon Condensation in the Bound-State Approach to the Skyrme Model

A Note on the QCD Corrections to Forward--Backward Asymmetries of Heavy--Quark Jets in Z Decays
The measurement of the forward-backward asymmetries of heavy quarks provides one of the most precise determinations of $\sin^2\theta_W$ in $Z$ decays. We discuss in detail the one--loop QCD radiative corrections to these asymmetries. Results are given for single heavy--quark jet asymmetries and asymmetries of the thrus...
