First correction to the high-energy asymptotics of the total $e^+e^-$ photoproduction cross section in the electric field of a heavy atom is derived with the exact account of this field. The consideration is based on the use of the quasiclassical electron Green function in an external electric field. The next-to-leading correction to the cross section is discussed. The influence of screening on the Coulomb corrections is examined in the leading approximation. It turns out that the high-energy asymptotics of the corresponding correction is independent of the photon energy. In the region where both produced particles are relativistic, the corrections to the high-energy asymptotics of the electron (positron) spectrum are derived. Our results for the total cross section are in good agreement with experimental data for photon energies down to a few $MeV$. In addition, the corrections to the bremsstrahlung spectrum are obtained from the corresponding results for pair production.

The differential cross-section for the process e+e- -> gammagamma is calculated assuming the presence of excited electrons with a chiral magnetic coupling. This calculation permits constraining the excited electron coupling using the same theoretical framework as the one generally used for direct production searches.
In this paper we apply to photoproduction total cross-section a model we have proposed for purely hadronic processes and which is based on QCD mini-jets and soft gluon re-summation. We compare the predictions of our model with the HERA data as well as with other models. For cosmic rays, our model predicts substantially higher cross-sections at TeV energies than models based on factorization but lower than models based on mini-jets alone, without soft gluons. We discuss the origin of this difference.
In the experiment with the SND detector at the VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider measuring the $e^+e^-to etagamma$ cross section in the energy range $0.6<sqrt{s}<1.38 mathrm{GeV}$ the reanalysis of data is performed. The goal is to improve the accuracy of the previous results by analysing ambiguities in the approximation of energy dependence of the $e^+e^-to etagamma$ cross section, which were not taken into account in our previous study. We report new results on the approximation of the $e^+e^-to etagamma$ cross section based on Vector Dominance Model under new model parameter assumptions.
We calculate the one-loop electroweak corrections to e+e- to WWZ and e+e- to ZZZ and analyse their impacts on both the total cross section and some key distributions. These processes are important for the measurements of the quartic couplings of the massive gauge bosons which can be a window on the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. We find that even after subtracting the leading QED corrections, the electroweak corrections can still be large especially as the energy increases. We compare and implement different methods of dealing with potential instabilities in the routines pertaining to the loop integrals. For the real corrections we apply a dipole subtraction formalism and compare it to a phase-space slicing method.
This paper presents a full simulation study of the measurement of the production cross section ($sigma_{mathrm{ZH}}$) of the Higgsstrahlung process $mathrm{e^{+}e^{-}rightarrow ZH}$ and the Higgs boson mass ($M_{mathrm{H}}$) at the International Linear Collider (ILC), using events in which a Higgs boson recoils against a Z boson decaying into a pair of muons or electrons. The analysis is carried out for three center-of-mass energies $sqrt{s}$ = 250, 350, and 500 GeV, and two beam polarizations $mathrm{e_{L}^{-}e_{R}^{+}}$ and $mathrm{e_{R}^{-}e_{L}^{+}}$, for which the polarizations of $mathrm{e^{-}}$ and $mathrm{e^{+}}$ are $left(Pmathrm{e^{-}},Pmathrm{e^{+}}right)$ =($-$80%, +30%) and (+80%, $-$30%), respectively. Assuming an integrated luminosity of 250 $mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ for each beam polarization at $sqrt{s}$ = 250 GeV, where the best lepton momentum resolution is obtainable, $sigma_{mathrm{ZH}}$ and $M_{mathrm{H}}$ can be determined with a precision of 2.5% and 37 MeV for $mathrm{e_{L}^{-}e_{R}^{+}}$ and 2.9% and 41 MeV for $mathrm{e_{R}^{-}e_{L}^{+}}$, respectively. Regarding a 20 year ILC physics program, the expected precisions for the $mathrm{HZZ}$ coupling and $M_{mathrm{H}}$ are estimated to be 0.4% and 14 MeV, respectively. The event selection is designed to optimize the precisions of $sigma_{mathrm{ZH}}$ and $M_{mathrm{H}}$ while minimizing the bias on the measured $sigma_{mathrm{ZH}}$ due to discrepancy in signal efficiencies among Higgs decay modes. For the first time, model independence has been demonstrated to a sub-percent level for the $sigma_{mathrm{ZH}}$ measurement at each of the three center-of-mass energies. The results presented show the impact of center-of-mass energy and beam polarization on the evaluated precisons and serve as a benchmark for the planning of the ILC run scenario.
