Quantum Field Theory of Bose-Einstein Correlations
A Quantum Field Theory formulation of Bose-Einstein Correlations is given. It contains as a special case the classical current approach. It is shown that the particle-antiparticle correlations are a general feature of Bose-Einstein Correlations and not an artifact of a certain approximation. Relations are provided thro...

Infrared Fixed Points and Fixed Lines in the Top-Bottom-Tau Sector in Supersymmetric Grand Unification
The two-loop ``top-down'' renormalization group flow for the top, bottom and tau Yukawa couplings is explored in the framework of supersymmetric grand unification; reproduction of the physical bottom and tau masses is required. Instead of following the recent trend of implementing exact Yukawa coupling unification i) a...

Photon Structure Functions: Target Photon Mass Effects and QCD Corrections
We present a systematic analysis of the processes $e^+ ~e^- \rightarrow e^+ ~e^- X$ to study the polarised and unpolarised photon structure functions. The effect of target photon mass, which manifests itself as new singly polarised structure functions is studied. The physical interpretation of these structure functions...

Natural R Parity Conservation with Horizontal Symmetries. a Four Generation Model
In most supersymmetric models the stability of the proton is ensured by invoking R-parity. A necessary ingredient to enforce R-parity is the possibility of distinguishing the lepton superfields from the Higgs ones.

Radiative symmetry breaking is studied in a superstring-inspired supersymmetric model which is extended with a low energy extra $U(1)$ symmetry.

Observations On the Potential Confinement of a Light Fermion
We consider possible dynamical models for a light fermion confined by a potential field. With the Dirac equation only Lorentz scalar confinement yields normalizable wavefunctions, while with the ``no pair'' variant of the Dirac equation only Lorentz vector confinement has normal Regge behaviour. A systematic investig...

CP Violation and Strong Phases from Penguins in $\bf B^{\pm}\rightarrow PP$ and $\bf B^{\pm}\rightarrow VP$ Decays
We calculate direct CP-violating rate asymmetries in charged $B\to PP$ and $B\to VP$ decays arising from the interference of amplitudes with different strong and CKM phases. The perturbative strong phases develop at order $\alpha_s$ from absorptive parts of one-loop matrix elements of the next-to-leading logarithm corr...
