    Full text link
    The compact expressions for cross sections of photoproduction of a pair of charged particles e+,e\mathrm{e}^+,\mathrm{e}^-; μ+,μ\mu^+,\mu^-; π+,π\pi^+,\pi^- as well as the double Compton scattering process are given. The explicit analytic expressions for the case of polarized photon and the initial electron in the kinematics when all the particles can be considered as a massless ones are presented. The photon polarization is described in the terms of Stokes parameters.Comment: LaTeX2e, 9 page

    Radiative corrections in Ke4K_{e4} decay

    Full text link
    The final state interaction of pions in the decay K±π+πe±νK^\pm\to \pi^+\pi^-e^\pm\nu allows to obtain the value of the isospin and angular momentum zero pion-pion scattering length a00a_0^0. To extract this quantity from experimental data the radiative corrections (RC) have to be taken into account. Basing on the lowest order results and the factorization hypothesis, we get the expressions for RC in the leading and next-to leading logarithmical approximation. It is shown that the decay width dependence on the lepton mass mem_e through the parameter \sigma=\frac{\alpha}{2\pi}\br{\ln\frac{M^2}{m_e^2}-1} has a standard form of the Drell-Yan process and is proportional to the Sommerfeld-Sakharov factor. The numerical estimations are presented.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures, 1 table, some minor misprints are correcte
