Electroweak Sudakov corrections

Abstract

At energies much larger than the mass of the weak gauge bosons, electroweak radiative corrections can lead to significant corrections. At 1 TeV the one loop corrections can be of $\mathcal{O}(20$ due to large contributions of the Sudakov type. We summarize recent progress in the evaluation and resummation of the double and single logarithmic corrections to general scattering amplitudes for fermions, transversely as well as longitudinally polarized external lines.
