Initial-State Radiative Corrections to the Production of 1- Topponium in e+e- Annihilation in the TRISTAN Energy Region
The resonant cross-section of e + e - →1 - topponium→hadrons in the region of about 50 GeV is numerically calculated by taking into account the initial-state radiative corrections to the order α 3 and the finite resolution in beam energy. The radiative corrections properly include the hadronic vacuum polarization. The exponentiated correction due to soft photon emission by incident particles is given in a numerical table of the radiatively corrected resolution function. Masses and decay widths of the topponium states are estimated by solving the Schrodinger equation with Coulomb plus linear potential. The result shows that the first two resonances may be detected by the TRISTAN e + e - collider.

Automation of loop amplitudes in numerical approach
Abstract An automatic calculating system GRACE-L1 of one-loop Feynman amplitude is reviewed. This system can be applied to 2 to 2-body one-loop processes. A sample calculation of 2 to 3-body one-loop amplitudes is also presented.

Monte Carlo Approach to Radiative Corrections in Bhabha Scattering
§ 1. lntroduction It has become a common understanding that detailed theoretical predictions for e+ e- experiments should include the radiative corrections with multi-photon contribu­ tion. A well-known example is the significant modification of the apparent cross section around the Z-boson pole at LEP.ll The study of inclusive processes with multi-photon emission has led some authors to propose several kinds of Monte Carlo generators. 2 l In a pre~ious paper 3 l we have reported a new method for the Monte Carlo generator of multi-photon and have shown some results obtained via a computer progam written for muon pair production in e+ e- annihilation. This is a QED version of the parton shower model which has been studied extensively in QCD. In this paper we generalize this method to the Bhabha scattering by employing essen­ tially the same algorithm as that for muon pair production. It will be convenient to summarize the main features of the algorithm to generate photons. We rely on the technique to sum up all the collinear singularities, which plays an essential role in the parton shower model. 4 J The present model is limited to the leading logarithmic approximation, though there is no difficulty in principle to include the next-to-leading corrections. 5 l This approximation is reasonable as the QED coupling a is very small compared with that in QCD. Another remarkable feature is that the transverse momentum distribution of produced photons is derived correctly once one imposes the four-momentum conservation at each of branching vertices. 4 l This is a consequence of the branching, e±--> e±y, being aprocess of 1--> 2 bodies.

Full $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to $e^+e^- \rightarrow e^+e^- \gamma$ at the ILC with GRACE-Loop
By using the GRACE-Loop system, we calculate the full $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow e^+e^- \gamma$, which is important for future investigations at the International Linear Collider (ILC). With the GRACE-Loop system, the calculations are checked numerically by three consistency tests: ultraviolet finiteness, infrared finiteness, and gauge-parameter independence. The results show good numerical stability when quadruple precision is used. In the phenomenological results, we find that the electroweak corrections to the total cross section range from $\sim -4\%$ to $\sim -21\%$ when $\sqrt{s}$ varies from $250$ GeV to $1$ TeV. The corrections also significantly affect the differential cross sections, which are a function of the invariant masses and angles and the final-particle energies. Such corrections will play an important role for the high-precision program at the ILC.

Precise Numerical Evaluation of the Scalar One-Loop Integrals with the Infrared Divergence
We present a new approach for obtaining very precise integration results for infrared vertex and box diagrams, where the integration is carried out directly without performing any analytic integration of Feynman parameters. Using an appropriate numerical integration routine with an extrapolation method, together with a multi-precision lib rary, we have obtained integration results which agree with the analytic results to 10 digits even for such a very small photon mass as 10 150 GeV in the infrared vertex diagram.

Deviation from tri-bimaximal mixing and flavor symmetry breaking in a seesaw type A(4) model
Abstract We have studied the contribution of higher order corrections of the flavor symmetry breaking in the A 4 seesaw model with the supersymmetry. Taking account of possible higher dimensional mass operators, we predict the deviation from the tri-bimaximal lepton mixing for both normal hierarchy and inverted hierarchy of neutrino masses. We have found that the value of sin 2 2 θ 23 is larger than 0.96 and the upper bound of sin 2 θ 13 is 0.01. We have also examined the flavor changing neutral current of leptons from the soft SUSY breaking in slepton masses and A-terms within the framework of supergravity theory. Those magnitudes are enough suppressed to be consistent with experimental constraints.

Pairing fluctuations and gauge symmetry restoration in rotating superfluid nuclei
Rapidly rotating nuclei provide us good testing grounds to study the pairing correlations; in fact, the transition from the superfluid to the normal phase is realized at high-spin states. The role played by the pairing correlations is quite different in these two phases: The static (BCS like mean-field) contribution is dominant in the superfluid phase, while the dynamic fluctuations beyond the mean-field approximation are important in the normal phase. The influence of the pairing fluctuations on the high-spin rotational spectra and moments of inertia is discussed.

Microscopic Calculation of the Wobbling Excitations Employing the Woods-Saxon Potential as a Nuclear Mean-Field
The wobbling excitations of the triaxial superdeformed (TSD) bands in the Lu and Hf region are studied by the microscopic framework of the cranked mean-field and the randomphase approximation (RPA). In contrast to the previous works, where the Nilsson potential was used, the more realistic Woods-Saxon potential is employed as a nuclear mean-field. It is pointed out that the original formulation should be slightly modified for general meanfield like the Woods-Saxon potential. The wobbling-like RPA solutions have been found systematically in the nuclei studied and their characteristic properties are investigated in detail. This confirms the wobbling phonon excitations in TSD nuclei from the microscopic calculations. The result of B(E2) values indicates that the triaxial deformation is increasing as a function of spin in the observed TSD bands in 163 Lu. Subject Index: 210, 211, 212

Tetrahedral symmetry in Zr nuclei: calculations of low-energy excitations with Gogny interaction
We report on the results of the calculations of the low energy excitation patterns for three Zirconium isotopes, viz 80Zr40, 96Zr56 and 110Zr70, reported by other authors to be doubly-magic tetrahedral nuclei (with tetrahedral magic numbers Z = 40 and N = 40, 56 and 70). We employ the realistic Gogny effective interactions using three variants of their parametrization and the particle-number, parity and the angular-momentum projection techniques. We confirm quantitatively that the resulting spectra directly follow the pattern expected from the group theory considerations for the tetrahedral symmetric quantum objects. We also find out that, for all the nuclei studied, the correlation energy obtained after the angular momentum projection is very large for the tetrahedral deformation as well as other octupole deformations. The lowering of the energies of the resulting configurations is considerable, i.e. by about 10 MeV or even more, once again confirming the significance of the angular-momentum projections techniques in the mean-field nuclear structure calculations.

Forward photon energy spectrum at LHC 7 TeV p-p collisions measured by LHCf
Abstract The LHCf experiment is one of the LHC forward experiments. The aim is to measure the energy and the transverse momentum spectra of photons, neutrons and π 0 's at the very forward region (the pseudo-rapidity range of η > 8.4 ), which should be critical data to calibrate hadron interaction models used in the air shower simulations. LHCf successfully operated at s = 900 GeV and s = 7 TeV proton–proton collisions in 2009 and 2010. We present the first physics result, single photon energy spectra at s = 7 TeV proton–proton collisions and the pseudo-rapidity ranges of η > 10.94 and 8.81 η 8.9 . The obtained spectra were compared with the predictions by several hadron interaction models and the models do not reproduce the experimental results perfectly.
