Unstable spin-1 particles are properly described by including absorptive corrections to the electromagnetic vertex and propagator, without breaking the electromagnetic gauge invariance. We show that the modified propagator can be set into a complex mass form, provided the mass and the width parameters, which are properly defined at the pole position, are replaced by energy dependent functions fulfilling the same requirements at the pole. We exemplify the case for the $K^*(892)$ vector meson, where the mass function deviates around 2 MeV from the $Kpi$ threshold to the pole position. The absorptive correction depends on the mass of the particles in the loop. For vector mesons, whose main decay is into two pseudoscalar mesons ($PP$), the flavor symmetry breaking induces a correction to the longitudinal part of the propagator. Considering the $tau^- to K_Spi^- u_tau$ decay, we illustrate these corrections by obtaining the modified vector and scalar form factors. The $K_Spi^-$ spectrum is described considering the $K^*(892)$ and $K^{*}(1410)$ vectors and one scalar particle. Nonetheless, for this case, the correction to the scalar form factor is found to be negligible.

We present results for higher-order corrections to exclusive $mathrm{J}/psi$ production. This includes the first relativistic correction of order $v^2$ in quark velocity, and next-to-leading order corrections in $alpha_s$ for longitudinally polarized production. The relativistic corrections are found to be important for a good description of the HERA data, especially at small values of the photon virtuality. The next-to-leading order results for longitudinal production are evaluated numerically. We also demonstrate how the vector meson production provides complementary information to the structure functions for extracting the initial condition for the small-$x$ evolution of the dipole-proton scattering amplitude.
We provide a quantum field theory based description of the nonperturbative effects from hadronization for soft drop groomed jet mass distributions using the soft-collinear effective theory and the coherent branching formalism. There are two distinct regions of jet mass $m_J$ where grooming modifies hadronization effects. In a region with intermediate $m_J$ an operator expansion can be used, and the leading power corrections are given by three universal nonperturbative parameters that are independent of all kinematic variables and grooming parameters, and only depend on whether the parton initiating the jet is a quark or gluon. The leading power corrections in this region cannot be described by a standard normalized shape function. These power corrections depend on the kinematics of the subjet that stops soft drop through short distance coefficients, which encode a perturbatively calculable dependence on the jet transverse momentum, jet rapidity, and on the soft drop grooming parameters $z_{rm cut}$ and $beta$. Determining this dependence requires a resummation of large logarithms, which we carry out at LL order. For smaller $m_J$ there is a nonperturbative region described by a one-dimensional shape function that is unusual because it is not normalized to unity, and has a non-trivial dependence on $beta$.
We compute a light front wave function for heavy vector mesons based on long distance matrix elements constrained by decay width analyses in the Non Relativistic QCD framework. Our approach provides a systematic expansion of the wave function in quar k velocity. The first relativistic correction included in our calculation is found to be significant, and crucial for a good description of the HERA exclusive $mathrm{J}/psi$ production data. When looking at cross section ratios between nuclear and proton targets, the wave function dependence does not cancel out exactly. In particular the fully non-relativistic limit is found not to be a reliable approximation even in this ratio. The important role of the Melosh rotation to express the rest frame wave function on the light front is illustrated.
We report on a recent calculation of the complete NLO QCD and electroweak corrections to the process $pptomu^+ u_mu e^+ u_ejj$, i.e. like-sign charged vector-boson scattering. The computation is based on the complete amplitudes involving two differen t orders of the strong and electroweak coupling constants at tree level and three different orders at one-loop level. We find electroweak corrections of $-13%$ for the fiducial cross section that are an intrinsic feature of the vector-boson scattering process. For differential distributions, the corrections reach up to $-40%$ in the phase-space regions explored. At the NLO level a unique separation between vector-boson scattering and irreducible background processes is not possible any more at the level of Feynman diagrams.
We compute the inclusive jet spectrum in the presence of a dense QCD medium by going beyond the single parton energy loss approximation. We show that higher-order corrections are important yielding large logarithmic contributions that must be resumme d to all orders. This reflects the fact that jet quenching is sensitive to fluctuations of the jet substructure.
