We present the full O(alpha) corrections to single Higgs production in e+e- collision. The computation is performed with the help of GRACE-LOOP where a generalized non-linear gauge fixing condition is implemented. The numerical results are checked by testing their UV and IR finiteness as well as their independence on all five non-linear gauge parameters. We find that for a 500 GeV collider and a light Higgs boson of mass 150GeV, the total correction is small when the results are expressed in terms of alpha rather than G_mu. For a higher Higgs boson mass of 350GeV, the correction is of order -10%.

We present the full $mathcal{O}(alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to the process $e^+e^- rightarrow t bar{t} gamma$ at the International Linear Collider (ILC). The computation is performed with the help of the GRACE-Loop system. We present the total cross-section and the top quark forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{FB}$) as a function of the center-of-mass energy and compare them with the process $e^+e^- rightarrow t bar{t}$. We find that the value of $A_{FB}$ in $t bar{t} gamma$ production is larger than $A_{FB}$ in $tbar{t}$ production. It is an important result for the measurement of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry at the ILC. Applying a structure function method, we also subtract the QED correction to gain the genuine weak correction in both the $alpha$ scheme and the $G_{mu}$ scheme ($delta_{W}^{G_{mu}}$). We obtain numerical values for $delta_{W}^{G_{mu}}$ which are changing from 2% to -24% when we vary the center-of-mass energy from 360 GeV to 1 TeV.
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.
Experiment 865 at the Brookhaven AGS obtained 410 K+ -> e+ nu e+e- and 2679 K+ -> mu+ nu e+e- events including 10% and 19% background. The branching ratios were measured to be (2.48+-0.14(stat.)+-0.14(syst.))x10^-8 (m_ee>150 MeV) and (7.06+-0.16+-0.26)x10^-8 (m_ee>145 MeV), respectively. Results for the decay form factors are presented.
We present the full ${{cal O}}(alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to associated Higgs top pair production in $e^+e^-$ collisions. We combine these results with a new calculation of the full one-loop QCD corrections. The computation is performed with the help of {tt GRACE-loop}. We find that the ${{cal O}}(alpha)$ correction can be larger than the ${{cal O}}(alpha_s)$ corrections around the peak of the cross section especially for a light Higgs mass. At threshold these corrections are swamped by the QCD corrections which are enhanced by the gluon Coulomb contribution. We have also subtracted the complete QED corrections and expressed the genuine weak correction both in the $alpha$-scheme and the $G_mu$-scheme. This reveals that the genuine weak corrections are not negligible and should be taken into account for a precision measurement of this cross section and the extraction of the Yukawa $t bar t H$ coupling.
The complete electroweak O(alpha) corrections are calculated for the charged-current four-fermion production processes e+e- --> nu_tau tau+ mu- anti-nu_mu, u anti-d mu- anti-nu_mu, and u anti-d s anti-c. The calculation is performed using complex gauge-boson masses, supplemented by complex couplings to restore gauge invariance. The evaluation of the occurring one-loop tensor integrals, which include 5- and 6-point functions, requires new techniques. Explicit numerical results are presented for total cross sections in the energy range from the W-pair-production threshold region up to a scattering energy of 2TeV. A comparison with the predictions based on the double-pole approximation (DPA) provided by the generator RacoonWW reveals corrections beyond DPA of < 0.5% in the energy range 170-300GeV, in agreement with previous estimates for the intrinsic DPA uncertainty. The difference to the DPA increases to 1-2% for sqrt{s} = 1-2TeV. At threshold, where the DPA becomes unreliable, the full O(alpha) calculation corrects an improved Born approximation (IBA) by about 1.6%, also consistent with an error estimate of the IBA.
