Hello dear everyone

I would like to ask if someone can help me with the following two things:

1) How many different feynman diagrams can one possibly draw for Higgs strahlung production that is of 4th order? The mediator should be Z-particle.

2) Formulate an equation for the amplitude (also known as the matrix element) of just one of those diagrams.

Your help is so much appreciated.

Do you mean a 4th order QCD correction? Or you want the weak corrections and qcd corrections?

Can you write a 1st order correction matrix element?
 
It should only be the weak corrections of 4th order, be cause we are using electron and positron.

I have written one, but not sure if its correct.. What is challenging is the H ray; how to treat that?

Do u know how many different diagrams one can make of 4th order correction in this case? :)

Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...
I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
