Numerical Evaluation of Feynman Integrals by a Direct Computation Method
A purely numerical method, Direct Computation Method is applied to evaluate Feynman integrals. This method is based on the combination of an efcient numerical integration and an efcient extrapolation. In addition, high-precision arithmetic and parallelization technique can be used in this method if required. We present the recent progress in development of this method and show results such as one-loop 5-point and two-loop 3-point integrals.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Deviations from tri-bimaximality and quark-lepton complementarity
We study deviations from tri-bimaximality (TBM) and quark-lepton complementarity (QLC) in a model-independent way. The current neutrino experimental data is well approximated by tri-bimaximal generation mixing but the QLC relations are not satisfied with each data of 1σ level. This means that there exist deviations from the complementarity. The same fact for the TBM might be checked in the future neutrino experiments. We discuss such deviations from the TBM and QLC, simultaneously. A new ratio between the deviations is introduced, and some interesting points are presented. We also show predicted correlations among leptonic mixing angles at the points.

Microscopic Study of Wobbling Motions in Hf and Lu Nuclei
One of the most striking findings in the recent high-spin spectroscopy is the discovery of one-phonon, and possibly double-phonon, excitation of the nuclear wobbling rotational bands. In this talk, we first review the properties of observed wobbling motions, and discuss the failure and success of the possible interpretation in terms of the simple rotor model. Then, we further present results of our microscopic study in Hf and Lu nuclei by means of the theoretical framework, the cranked mean-field and the random phase approximation.

Complete set of deuteron analyzing powers for dp elastic scattering at intermediate energies
With the aim of clarifying roles of the 3NFs in nuclei experimental programs with polarized deuterons beams at intermediate energies are in progress at RIKEN RI Beam Factory. As the first step, we have measured a complete set of deuteron analyzing powers (iT 11, T 20, T 21, T 22) in deuteron-proton elastic scattering at 250 and 294 MeV/nucleon. The obtained data are compared with the Faddeev calculations based on the modern nucleon-nucleon forces together with the Tucson-Melbourne’99, and UrbanaIX three nucleon forces.

Method to circumvent the neutron gas problem in the BCS treatment for nuclei far from stability
Extending the Kruppa's prescription for the continuum level density, we have recently improved the BCS method with seniority-type pairing force in such a way that the effects of discretized unbound states are properly taken into account for finite depth single-particle potentials. In this paper, it is further shown, by employing the Woods-Saxon potential, that the calculation of spatial observables, such as nuclear radius, converges as increasing the basis size in the harmonic oscillator expansion. Namely the disastrous problem of a ''particle gas'' surrounding nucleus in the BCS treatment can be circumvented. In spite of its simplicity, the new treatment gives similar results to those by more elaborate Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations, e.g., it even mimics the pairing antihalo effect. The obtained results as well as the reason of convergence in the new method are investigated by a variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation within the limited phase space which corresponds to the harmonic oscillator basis truncation.

Heuristic quantization of the cranking model
We propose a simple and systematic method to quantize the cranking model and to calculate the matrix elements of intrinsic operators entering the generalized intensity relations. An example of the application is given to show the Coriolis coupling effects for B(E3) values of the 3- octupole states in Gd isotopes.
