Elimination of the Landau Ghost from Chiral Solitons
We show a practical way based on the K\"{a}ll\'{e}n-Lehmann representation for the two-point functions to eliminate the instability of the vacuum against formation of small sized meson configurations in the chiral $\sigma$ model.

Three-jet production at LEP and the bottom quark mass
We consider the possibility of extracting the bottom quark mass from LEP data. The inclusive decay rate for $\zbb +\cdots$ is obtained at order $\as$ by summing up the one-loop two-parton decay rate to the tree-level three-parton rate. We calculate the decay width of the $Z$-boson into two and three jets containing the...

Production of Polarized tau Pairs and Tests of CP Violation Using Polarized e+e- Colliders Near Threshold
We consider the production of tau pairs by electron-positron colliding beams at the maximum cross section near the threshold. At this energy tau pairs are produced mostly in the s-wave which implies that the spin of the tau pairs are almost always pointing in the beam direction independent of the production angle. When...

Taming the Scalar Mass Problem with a Singlet Higgs Boson

Pion Polarizability, Radiative Transitions, and Quark Gluon Plasma Signatures
Can one expect gamma rays rates from the QGP to be higher than from the hot hadronic gas phase? Xiong, Shuryak, Brown (XSB) calculate photon production from a hot hadronic gas via the reaction $\pi^- + \rho^0 \rightarrow \pi^- + \gamma$. They assume that this reaction proceeds through the a$_1$(1260). They also use the...

Localized Energy Deposition in Neutrino Telescopes: a Signature of "New Physics"
A class of phenomena either not contained in the Standard Model or in its perturbative treatment (multiple W/Z production, compositeness of quarks and leptons) leads to a large energy deposition in neutrino telescopes within a rather small volume. The shape of the particle distribution arising from such phenomena is es...
