The factorization appears in a generalized eikonal approximation in which we expand around a quasi-soft limit for massive gauge bosons, fermions, and scalars. We use the chirality-flow formalism together with a flow basis for isospin to express loop exchanges or emissions as operators in chirality and isospin flow. This forms the basis for amplitude evolution with parton exchange and branching in the full Standard Model, including the electroweak sector.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-04-07T07:04:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "electroweak standard model", "amplitude factorization", "entire standard model", "express loop exchanges", "full standard model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
