One-loop electroweak corrections for polarized Moller scattering at different renormalization schemes and conditions

Understand

Using two different approaches, we perform updated and detailed calculations of the complete one-loop (Next-to-Leading Order (NLO)) set of electroweak radiative corrections to the parity violating e- e- -> e- e- (gamma) scattering asymmetry.

• Our first approach, more classical, relies on calculations "by hand" with reasonable approximations.
• Our second approach relies on program packages FeynArts, FormCalc, LoopTools, and FORM.
• The detailed numerical analysis of the various contributions is provided for a wide range of energies relevant for the ultra-precise 11 GeV MOLLER experiment planned at the Jefferson Laboratory, as well as future experiments at the International Linear Collider (ILC).
