Evaluating Sums over the Matsubara Frequencies
Perturbative calculations in field theory at finite temperature involve sums over the Matsubara frequencies. Besides the usual difficulties that appear in perturbative computations, these sums give rise to some new obstacles that are carefully analized here. I present a fast and realible recipe to work out sums over th...

Solar Model Uncertainties, MSW Analysis, and Future Solar Neutrino Experiments
Various theoretical uncertainties in the standard solar model and in the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) analysis are discussed. It is shown that two methods of estimating the solar neutrino flux uncertainties are equivalent: (a) a simple parametrization of the uncertainties using the core temperature and the nuclea...

Ideas in Nonperturbative QCD
The structure of the hadron spectrum is discussed in connection with the main phenomena of nonperturbative QCD: confinement and chiral symmetry breaking (CSB). For the higher part of the spectrum ($M \ge 2 GeV$) spin and chiral effects are unimportant; spectrum of $q\bar{q}$ system is described by an effective Hamilton...

Issues in Light Hadron Spectroscopy
A high priority in light spectroscopy is to seek out and characterize various types of non-$(Q\bar{Q}$) meson. The large quantity of new data now appearing will present a great opportunity. To identify the non-$(Q\bar{Q}$) intruders one needs to know the regular $(Q\bar{Q}$) pattern well; whole meson families thus beco...

$b \rightarrow s \gamma$ and $\epsilon_b$ Constraints on Two Higgs Doublet Model

The scattering of a charged fermion from an electroweak or semi-local string is investigated and a full solution obtained for both massive and massless cases.

Global Strings and the Aharonov-Bohm Effect

On the Higher Order Corrections to Heavy Quark Effective Theory
We show that the different ways of deriving the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) lead to equivalent theories. The equivalence can be established through a careful redefinition of the field variables. We demonstrate the equivalence to order ${1 \over m^5}$ in the presence of a constant electric field.

On the Wess-Zumino-Witten anomalous functional at finite temperature
We discuss the finite temperature extension of the anomalous Wess-Zumino -Witten lagrangian. The finite temperature S^1\times S^3 compactification makes a structure in disconnected sectors, corresponding to different baryon numbers appear naturally. The consistency of the anomalous functional is proved for arbitrary ba...

$b \to s \gamma$ Decay in $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)$ Extensions of the Standard Model
The rare radiative decay $b \to s \gamma$ is studied in $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)$ extensions of the Standard Model. Matching conditions for coefficients of operators appearing in the low energy effective Hamiltonian for this process are derived, and QCD corrections to these coefficients are analyzed. The $b ...
