Abstract: (Elsevier)
The hard bremsstrahlung to the total cross section e + e − → W + W − has been calculated to O(α) and combined with the corresponding virtual electroweak and soft photonic corrections. O(α 2 ) leading logarithmic contributions have been added. Close to threshold, both the O(α) non-leading corrections and the leading O(α 2 ) contributions reach a few percent. Therefore, they both have to be taken into account for precision measurements in the threshold region.- electron positron: annihilation
