Abstract

We describe a formalism for calculating electroweak Sudakov logarithms in the Coulomb gauge. This formalism is applicabl to arbitrary electroweak processes. For illustration we focus on the specific reactions e +e − → f f and e + e − → W T + W T −, W L + W L −, which contain all the salient details of dealing with the various types of particles. We discuss an explicit two-loop calculation and have a critical look at the (non-) exponentiation and factorisation properties of the Sudakov logarithms in the Standard Model.
