Low and High Energy Asymptotic Behavior of Electroweak Corrections in Polarized $e^+ e^- \to μ^+ μ^-$ Process

Electroweak radiative corrections will play a major role in the analysis of several upcoming ultra-precision experiments such as Belle-II, so is crucial to make sure that they are fully under control. The article outlines the recent developments in the theoretical and computational approaches to one-loop (NLO) electroweak radiative corrections to the parity-violating asymmetry in $e^- e^+ \to μ^- μ^+ (γ)$ process with longitudinally polarized electrons. We derive asymptotic expressions for low and high energy regions (well below or above $Z$-resonance, correspondingly) and analyze the leading contributions. For most of energy regions, our results are in good agreement with precise computer-algebra based calculation and can used as a quicker alternative.

Two-loop electroweak vertex corrections for polarized Møller scattering

The contributions to the electron-electron-photon vertex of two-loop electroweak corrections are calculated. The relative correction to the parity-violating asymmetry of Møller scattering for the case of 11 GeV electron scattered off the electron at rest is found to be about -0.0034 and should be taken into account at future experiment MOLLER at JLab.

NNLO electroweak corrections for polarized Moller scattering: one-loop insertions to boxes

The paper discusses the two-loop (NNLO) electroweak radiative corrections to the parity-violating Moller scattering asymmetry induced by insertions to boxes of electron and neutrino mass operators (fermion self-energies), vertex functions and boson self-energies. The results will be relevant to the ultra-precise 11 GeV MOLLER experiment planned at the Jefferson Laboratory, which will measure the weak charge of the electron and search for new physics. The numerical estimations for the NNLO contribution to the cross section asymmetry are presented.

Parity violating Moller scattering asymmetry up to the two-loop level

The paper investigates contributions of $Z$, $W$ and $γ$ intermediate states to the parity-violating Moller scattering asymmetry up to two-loop level. Using the Yennie--Frautschi--Suura factorization form for amplitudes, we demonstrate that QED corrections, with an exception of vacuum-polarization effects, cancel at the asymmetry level. We obtain chiral amplitudes at Born, one-loop and partially at two-loop level: boxes with lepton self-energies, ladder boxes and decorated boxes. Our calculations are relevant for the ultra-precise 11 GeV MOLLER experiment planned at Jefferson Laboratory and future ILC experiments. The numerical comparision of the two-loop contributions with the experimental accuracy of MOLLER is provided.
