Higgs Sector Motivations for an e-minus e-minus Linear Collider

On the Neutralino as Dark Matter Candidate - I. Relic Abundance
The neutralino relic abundance is evaluated for a wide range of the neutralino mass, ${\rm 20\ GeV} \leq m_\chi \leq {\rm 1\ TeV}$, by taking into account the full set of final states in the neutralino-neutralino annihilation. The analysis is performed in the Minimal SuSy Standard Model; it is not restricted by stringe...

Renormalization of the Neutrino Mass Operator
A small neutrino Majorana mass can arise in the Standard Model as an effective dimension 5 operator. We calculate the renormalization of this operator in the minimal Standard Model and in its two-Higgs-doublet and supersymmetric extensions.

Remarks on Hot QCD
After briefly reviewing work I've done recently with Krishna Rajagopal on the nature of the equilibrium phase transition in QCD at finite temperature and zero baryon number and on the possibility of forming misaligned vacuum by a quench, I discuss -- also briefly -- two new items. These are extension of the arguments c...

{\Large{\bf Higgs or Neutral Vector Boson Production with a $W$ Pair in {\LARGE $\gamma \gamma$} Collisions}}
Exploiting the fact that $W$ pair production in high-energy $\gamma \gamma$ collisions is very large, we use this process to trigger Higgs, $Z$ or photon radiation. We find that there are sizeable rising cross-sections for triple bosons production. At energies about $1TeV$ the new mechanism for Higgs production becomes...

Anomalous Higgs Boson Production and Decay
A non-standard symmetry breaking sector may lead to derivative couplings of the Higgs boson and thereby to anomalous interactions with the electroweak gauge bosons.

Possibilities are discussed for determining the top quark mass $m_t$ from observations on the decay processes for top-antitop pairs produced in antiproton-proton collisions, assuming that the $t \to bW^+$ decay channel is dominant and much faster than hadronization.
