We present the full $mathcal{O}(alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to the process $e^+e^- rightarrow t bar{t} gamma$ at the International Linear Collider (ILC). The computation is performed with the help of the GRACE-Loop system. We present the total cross-section and the top quark forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{FB}$) as a function of the center-of-mass energy and compare them with the process $e^+e^- rightarrow t bar{t}$. We find that the value of $A_{FB}$ in $t bar{t} gamma$ production is larger than $A_{FB}$ in $tbar{t}$ production. It is an important result for the measurement of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry at the ILC. Applying a structure function method, we also subtract the QED correction to gain the genuine weak correction in both the $alpha$ scheme and the $G_{mu}$ scheme ($delta_{W}^{G_{mu}}$). We obtain numerical values for $delta_{W}^{G_{mu}}$ which are changing from 2% to -24% when we vary the center-of-mass energy from 360 GeV to 1 TeV.
By using the GRACE-Loop system, we calculate the full $mathcal{O}(alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to the process $e^+e^- rightarrow e^+e^- gamma$, which is important for future investigations at the International Linear Collider (ILC). With the GRACE-Loop system, the calculations are checked numerically by three consistency tests: ultraviolet finiteness, infrared finiteness, and gauge-parameter independence. The results show good numerical stability when quadruple precision is used. In the phenomenological results, we find that the electroweak corrections to the total cross section range from $sim -4%$ to $sim -21%$ when $sqrt{s}$ varies from $250$ GeV to $1$ TeV. The corrections also significantly affect the differential cross sections, which are a function of the invariant masses and angles and the final-particle energies. Such corrections will play an important role for the high-precision program at the ILC.
We have calculated the complete electroweak O(alpha) radiative corrections to the Higgs-boson production process e+ e- -> t anti-t H in the electroweak Standard Model. Initial-state radiation beyond O(alpha) is included in the structure-function approach. The calculation of the corrections is briefly described, and numerical results are presented for the total cross section. Both the photonic and the genuine weak corrections reach the order of about 10% or even more and show a non-trivial dependence on the Higgs-boson mass and on the scattering energy. We compare our results with two previous calculations that obtained differing results at high energies.
We present the full O(alpha) corrections to single Higgs production in e+e- collision. The computation is performed with the help of GRACE-LOOP where a generalized non-linear gauge fixing condition is implemented. The numerical results are checked by testing their UV and IR finiteness as well as their independence on all five non-linear gauge parameters. We find that for a 500 GeV collider and a light Higgs boson of mass 150GeV, the total correction is small when the results are expressed in terms of alpha rather than G_mu. For a higher Higgs boson mass of 350GeV, the correction is of order -10%.
We present the full ${{cal O}}(alpha)$ electroweak radiative corrections to associated Higgs top pair production in $e^+e^-$ collisions. We combine these results with a new calculation of the full one-loop QCD corrections. The computation is performed with the help of {tt GRACE-loop}. We find that the ${{cal O}}(alpha)$ correction can be larger than the ${{cal O}}(alpha_s)$ corrections around the peak of the cross section especially for a light Higgs mass. At threshold these corrections are swamped by the QCD corrections which are enhanced by the gluon Coulomb contribution. We have also subtracted the complete QED corrections and expressed the genuine weak correction both in the $alpha$-scheme and the $G_mu$-scheme. This reveals that the genuine weak corrections are not negligible and should be taken into account for a precision measurement of this cross section and the extraction of the Yukawa $t bar t H$ coupling.
Large scale calculation for the radiative corrections required for the current and future collider experiments can be done automatically using the GRACE-LOOP system. Here several results for e+e- --> 3-body processes are presented including e+e- --> e+e-H and e+e- --> nu nubar gamma.
