Abstract

Theoretical predictions for Bhabha scattering observables are presented including complete one-loop electroweak radiative corrections. A longitudinal polarization of the initial beams is taken into account. Numerical results for the asymmetry $A_{LR}$ and the relative correction $\delta$ are given for the set of the energy $E_{cm}=250, 500, 1000$~GeV with various polarization degrees.

Highlights

  • The complete one-loop electroweak (EW) corrections to unpolarized Bhabha scattering [1] have been thoroughly studied for many years by the authors of [2] and later the authors of [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]

  • We present numerical results for EW radiative corrections (RC) to Bhabha scattering obtained by means of the SANC Monte Carlo event generator

  • The theoretical description of Bhabha scattering with taking into account the radiative corrections is crucial for the high-precision measurement of this process and for luminosity monitoring at the modern and future eþe− colliders

Summary

INTRODUCTION

The complete one-loop electroweak (EW) corrections to unpolarized Bhabha scattering [1] have been thoroughly studied for many years by the authors of [2] and later the authors of [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]. The Bhabha cross section with the oneloop QED contribution including transverse and longitudinal polarizations of the incoming beams is presented in [13,14]. In our review [16] we have presented the SANC modules for the one-loop electroweak radiative corrections (RC) for Bhabha scattering: the helicity amplitudes (HA) and form factors (FF). In this article we present the complete one-loop calculation of the EW radiative corrections to Bhabha scattering with polarized beams. The unpolarized hard photon contribution is compared analytically with the result of the CALCHEP code [28]. IV we conclude with a discussion of the obtained results
