Higgs model with ghost-field formalism
The Higgs model for the interaction of vector and scalar fields is treated by means of the ghost-field formalism, which preserves the unitarity of the scattering operator as well as simplifies the renormalization procedure. Our ghost-field formalism has some similarity to the ${R}_{\ensuremath{\xi}}$ formalism with $\ensuremath{\xi}=1$, but it does not require the introduction of the so-called gauge-compensating terms. Applications to the second-order self-energy of a scalar particle and to the fourth-order scattering of vector particles are discussed.

Quantum-chromodynamic potential model for light and heavy quarkonia
Our earlier treatment for the investigation of the cc-bar, bb-bar, and tt-bar spectra is extended to other p quarkonia with u, d, s, c, and b quarks. We find that it is possible to account fully for the observed ground-state hyperfine splittings of light as well as heavy quarkonia provided that the perturbative quantum-chromodynamic potential is supplemented not only by the nonperturbative confining potential but also by a nonperturbative annihilation potential which rapidly decreases with increase in the quark mass. We also give our predictions for the experimentally interesting bu-bar, bs-bar, and bc-bar systems with unknown mass splittings.

Nonsingular potential model for heavy quarkonia.
A nonsingular potential model for heavy quarkonia is described which does not require recourse to an illegitimate perturbative treatment for the investigation of quarkonium spectra. Our overall results for the energy levels, the leptonic widths, and the E1 transition widths are in very good agreement with the experimental data for bb-bar and they are reasonably good for cc-bar. We also find that the confining part of the quarkonium potential is scalar-vector exchange rather than the currently favored scalar exchange.

MULTIPLE PHOTON PRODUCTION IN QUANTUM ELECTRODYNAMICS
Multiple production of photons in high-energy processes in quantum electrodynamics is investigated, and the electron-positron annihilation is specially discussed in detail. It is found that at very high energies in cosmic rays, multiple production of up to four or five observable photons can easily take place. But, the probability, according to quantum electrodynamics, for the multiple production of a larger number of observable photons is quite small.

Relativistic Hadron Model with Intrinsic Mass Splittings
A simple mechanism for the $\mathrm{SU}(3)$-symmetry breaking in strong interactions is introduced by using the formalism of the multispinor field equations, which avoids the use of physical quarks but has resemblance to the quark model. The resulting treatment leads to the Gell-Mann-Okubo mass formula for baryons, but not for mesons. It yields approximate values of -19.5\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} and 33\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} for the $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ and $\ensuremath{\varphi}\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\omega}$ mixing angles, respectively, and also provides a reasonable explanation for the intermultiplet meson mass formula $m_{K}^{}{}_{}{}^{2}\ensuremath{-}m_{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{}{}_{}{}^{2}=m_{{K}^{*}}^{}{}_{}{}^{2}\ensuremath{-}m_{\ensuremath{\rho}}^{}{}_{}{}^{2}$.

Eikonal model description of forward energy distribution in oxygen-induced reactions at 60 A GeV and 200 A GeV
The forward energy flow cross section is described in terms of the projectile-nucleon abrasion probability which is calculated in the impact parameter representation within the framework of the Glauber multiple scattering formalism. Realistic nuclear densities and the nucleon-nucleon inelastic cross section have been used in the calculation. The recent WA80 data are in reasonable agreement with the calculation. A simple relationship has been obtained between the abrased nucleons from the target and projectile and the zero degree energy.

CP violating anomalous top-quark couplings at the Large Hadron Collider
In this talk, I review the T-odd correlations induced by CP violating anomalous top-quark couplings at both production and decay level in the process gg --> t t_bar --> (b mu+ nu_mu) (b_bar mu-nu_mu_bar). In addition I will also focus on experimental sensitivities corresponding to the anomalous couplings at the LHC.

The electrical conductivity and soft photon emissivity of the QCD plasma
Abstract The electrical conductivity in the hot phase of the QCD plasma is extracted from a quenched lattice measurement of the Euclidean time vector correlator for 1.5 ⩽ T / T c ⩽ 3 . The spectral density in the vicinity of the origin is examined using a method specially adapted to this region, and a peak at small energies is seen. The continuum limit of the electrical conductivity, and the closely related soft photon emissivity of the QCD plasma, are then extracted from a fit to the Fourier transform of the temporal vector correlator.

Absolutely anticommuting (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations for topologically massive Abelian gauge theory
We demonstrate the existence of the nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting Becchi–Rouet–Stora–Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for the four (3+1)-dimensional (4D) topologically massive Abelian U(1) gauge theory that is described by the coupled Lagrangian densities (which incorporate the celebrated (B∧F) term). The absolute anticommutativity of the (anti-) BRST symmetry transformations is ensured by the existence of a Curci–Ferrari type restriction that emerges from the superfield formalism as well as from the equations of motion which are derived from the above coupled Lagrangian densities. We show the invariance of the action from the point of view of the symmetry considerations as well as superfield formulation. We discuss, furthermore, the topological term within the framework of superfield formalism and provide the geometrical meaning of its invariance under the (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations.
