For the small-angle Bhabha-scattering process, we consider the error budget for the calculation of the LEP/SLC luminosity in the Monte Carlo event generator BHLUMI 4.04, from the standpoint of new calculations of exact results for the respective O(alpha**2) photonic corrections in the context of the Yennie-Frautchi-Suura exponentiation. We find that an over-all precision tag for the currently available program BHLUMI 4.04 can be reduced from 0.11% to 0.061% at LEP1 and from 0.25% to 0.122% at LEP2. For the large-angle Bhabha process, we present the Monte Carlo program BHWIDE and compare its predictions with predictions of other Monte Carlo programs as well as semi-analytical calculations.

This note intends to give an estimate on the sensitivity of the channel ee to ee at the future ILC250. At variance with other two fermion processes, the so-called Bhabha process is influenced by t-channel Z/photon exchange. In spite of the complexity of the resulting angular distribution of this process, one observes a good sensitivity to Zprime exchange, similar to those observed in annihilation channels. This feature is illustrated within the gauge-Higgs unification model, GHU, which shows an impressive indirect sensitivity to the mass of Zprime particles, up to about 20 TeV for the leptonic channels. Beam longitudinal polarisation and high luminosity are the key ingredients for this result. Measuring the Zprime ee coupling with the Bhabha process allows to measure separately Zprimemumu and Zprimetautau coupling, which serves for a precise test of lepton universality. Zprimebb and Zprimett couplings show good sensitivities to GHU. LHC and HE-LHC sensitivities are also discussed.
We provide an exact calculation of next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) massive corrections to Bhabha scattering in QED, relevant for precision luminosity monitoring at meson factories. Using realistic reference event selections, exact numerical resu lts for leptonic and hadronic corrections are given and compared with the corresponding approximate predictions of the event generator BabaYaga@NLO. It is shown that the NNLO massive corrections are necessary for luminosity measurements with per mille precision. At the same time they are found to be well accounted for in the generator at an accuracy level below the one per mille. An update of the total theoretical precision of BabaYaga@NLO is presented and possible directions for a further error reduction are sketched.

This paper is an updated version of the invited plenary talk given at the XXII Physics in Collision Conference at Stanford, (June 2002). The measurements performed at LEP and SLC have substantially improved the precision of the tests of the Minimal S tandard Model. The precision is such that there is sensitivity to pure weak radiative corrections. This allows to indirectly determine the top mass (mt=178$pm$10 GeV), the W-boson mass (MW=80.368$pm$0.022 GeV), and to set an upper limit on the Higgs boson mass of 193 GeV at 95% confidence level.
We present the calculation of the elastic and inelastic high--energy small--angle electron--positron scattering with a {it per mille} accuracy. PACS numbers 12.15.Lk, 12.20.--m, 12.20.Ds, 13.40.--f
The results obtained by the Event Generators for Bhabha Scattering working group during the CERN Workshop Physics at LEP2 (1994/1995) are presented.
