Multiphoton Radiation in Leptonic W-Boson Decays

Abstract

We present the calculation of multiphoton radiation effects in leptonic W-boson decays in the framework of the Yennie-Frautschi-Suura exclusive exponentiation. This calculation is implemented in the Monte Carlo event generator WINHAC for single W-boson production in hadronic collisions at the parton level. Some numerical results obtained with the help of this program are also presented.
