    Application of LSZ reduction in NLO computations (external legs)

    Hello everyone, I have a question about virtual corrections of an external fermion line. According to the LSZ reduction formula and what some other people say, we neglect the self energies of external legs and multiply the wavefunction therefor just with a squareroot of the wave function...

    What is the significance of the renormalization scale μ?

    Hello everybody, I have a short question about the renormalization scale. For dimensional regularization we introduce a scale μ with mass dimension to preserve the correct mass-dimension for the coupling and so on so that it is independent of the value of d = 4-2ε. But why can that μ have any...

    Calculating Cross Sections from Events + Luminosity

    Thanks a lot... but I think in the paper I have read they have used the integrated luminosity...because they have used exactly the dimension "inverse barn"...

    Calculating Cross Sections from Events + Luminosity

    hm?...I wanted to get a cross section limit for monojet signals...and I always found only the luminosity and the events...and event has no dimension..luminosity is inverse barn and XS is barn..so..if I really only need those paramaters..then it's trivial...I thought maybe I also need sth else...

    Calculating Cross Sections from Events + Luminosity

    ah..lol..I think it's just...events = sigma * luminosity...right?

    Calculating Cross Sections from Events + Luminosity

    Hello, How can I convert the number of events + the luminosity in a cross section? I think this must be trivial... thanks..

    Why Are Feynman Diagrams Crucial for Understanding Electroweak Vertices?

    I have a question about Feynman Diagrams: let's say we have a process: up antidown -> W+ -> up antidown... the first vertex is like V_CKM G PL ( mixing, gamma, projector) the second is the same..only with the complex conjugate CKM matrix... but why?... If I compute the M* I have to...
