Abstract: (arXiv)
By including the recently discovered Higgs-like scalar in the Electroweak Chiral Lagrangian, and using the Equivalence Theorem, we carry out the complete one-loop computation of the elastic scattering amplitude for the longitudinal components of the gauge bosons at high energy. We also compute and the inelastic process , and identify the counterterms needed to cancel the divergences, namely the well known and chiral parameters plus three additional ones only superficially treated in the literature because of their dimension 8. Finally we compute all the partial waves and discuss the limitations of the one-loop computation due to only approximate unitarity.Note:
