The Standard Model describes elementary particle                           interactions in terms of gauge theories:  Quantumchromodynamics                 (QCD) for the strong interactions and the Glashow-Weinberg-                     Salam agreement with experiment.  However, it does not naturally                explain the particle mass spectrum, the breaking of electroweak                 gauge symmetry, or the different strengths of the QCD and GWS                   couplings:  these deficiencies strongly indicate the existence of               a Higgs particle and possible new interactions at energies which                will become available in the near future.  Perturbation theory, a               power series expansion, may be used to study QCD at high                        energies.  However, the expansion parameter is not small and                    higher-order corrections are substantial.  These corrections will               be computed for various lepton and hadron reactions to obtain                   reliable predictions of cross section normalizations, and                       transverse momentum and other distributions.  These predictions                 will allow for more precise tests of QCD; they will aid in                      studying non-perturbative effects due to strong quark-gluon                     forces in initial-state hadrons and in hadron jets; and they will               facilitate unambiguous identification of signals of the                         electroweak and possible new interactions.  Production of GWS                   gauge bosons and of the Higgs boson will be studied:  signals                   will be compared with QCD backgrounds, and unusual signals which                exhibit properties, such as parity-violation, that are not shared               by the background will be identified.                                                These results, to be obtained by a very highly-regarded and                capable elementary particle theorist, will enable precision                     tests of the Standard Model to be made at accelerators presently                in operation or under construction, and will aid in the design                  and execution of experiments searching for new particles and                    interactions at future super colliders.
