Bhabha scattering in the energy region around the Z° boson has been studied. The calculation is performed in the standard electroweak theory and contains all tV(a) radiative corrections, i.e. virtual, soft photon and hard photon corrections. Some realistic kinematical Cuts are imposed. It is found that the correction around the Z° pole is sensitive to Mz. An event generator of the Bhabha scattering has also been developed. By using this, experimentally interesting distributions are generated.

1. Introduction At the energy of PEP and PETRA the Bhabha scattering has been used to check QED up to 3). Now the energy of the colliding beam t12(a machines TRISTAN, SLC and LEP will be around the Z° mass and in this energy region the weak interaction becomes important. Our interest is whether the standard electroweak theory can correctly describe the Bhabha process. In order to compare the theory with experiments the radiative correction to the process is required. The radiative correction to the Bhabha scattering has been calculated by many authors in this decade. The complete calculations in QED have been given in refs. [1—3].In the electroweak theory, several works are published in refs. [4—9]. The calculation of £!2(a) radiative corrections including hard photon emission is completed by two of the present authors [9]. We studied the Z° mass dependence of the radiative corrections and the corrected total cross sections around the Z°pole, the important quantities to be measured by experiments at SLC and LEP. In the calculation the on-shell renormaliza-

tion scheme [10] was adopted, where we used the masses of Z° and W ± bosons, M~and M~,as the parameters of the weak interaction. This choice of parameters is quite natural because these masses will be directly measured with high precision in future experiments. By using the Fermi coupling constant GF, however, M~ can be calculated from M~. In ref. [11] a table of the relations between M~and M~with the one loop electroweak corrections is given. We use this table for fixing M~in our calculation. From the experimental point of view, event generators are indispensable, because in data analysis one must know about the detector acceptance, detection efficiency of photon and electron, position and energy resolutions of detected photons and electrons etc. These quantities cannot be studied without the event generator of the process. We have developed an event generator for Bhabha scattering. In sections 2 and 3 the elastic process and the hard photon emission process are described. The results and method of the event generation are given in section 4. In the last section discussion and conclusion are presented.

For example, when the initial electron emits the photon along its direction, the denominator of the electron propagator takes its minimum value proportional to m~.The second type is the s ‘-singularity. When the photon is emitted with its maximum energy from the initial electron or positron, s’ (q~+ q)2 takes its minimum value 4m~.When the positron or electron is scattered into the initial direction, the third type of singularity appears, where the invariant t (q~—p~)2 (t’ (q_ —p)2) is exactly 0 in the limit of zero photon energy. We call this I ‘)-singularity. This is just the Coulomb singularity. The last type is the infrared singularity, which is avoided by introducing a photon energy cut k~but still gives a sharp rise at k = k~. As the independent variables for the phase —

0eV for M~ and 2.5 GeV for F~.Further we impose a polar angle cut 300 ~ 0 ~ 1500 and an acollinearity angle cut ~ = 100 upon the final electron and positron. The acollinearity angle is defined as the complementary angle between out-

of Born cross sections. One can see the radiative tail in the figure. We show the total radiative correction ~ TOT in fig. 7. ~ TOT is defined by ~

going electron and positron. Fig. 5 shows the cos dependence the radiative correction 6total 8(cos 0) at three of different CM energies (a) 60 GeV, (b) 93 GeV, (c) 150 GeV. The M~dependence is remarkable in fig. Sb but not in fig. Sa and fig. Sc. In fig. Sb the percentage correction for M~= 90 GeV is fairly large due to the radiative tail. In fig. 6 we show the total cross section a (total) as a function of CM energy from 80 GeV to 110 GeV with (a) M~= 90 GeV, (b) M~= 93 GeV and (c) M~= 96 GeV. The dotted lines and the solid lines show the total Born cross sections and corrected ones, respectively. The peak of the total Born cross section is located below the Z° pole, about 240, 220 and 190 MeV lower for M~= 90, 93 and 96 GeV. The peak of corrected ones slightly shifts (about 150 MeV higher) compared to those

In fig. 8 we show this distribution at = 60 GeV with k~= 0.5 GeV. The generating function for the elastic event can be determined by this distribution. To generate the hard photon event, the event generation program SPRING [15] is used together with BASES. The final sample of events is made by mixing the events of each part according to the relative weight of each cross section. It is noted that the cross sections a astic) and ~ depend on the soft photon energy cut k~,but the sum of these cross sections, a (total) = a (elastic) + ~ does not, As an example we generate 50000 events under the condition; 300 ~ 0 ~ 150~, M~= 93 0eV and F~= 2.5 GeV. Fig. 9 shows the scattering angle distributions of the event samples (solid histogram) which reproduce the calculated one (dashed histogram). We also give the acollinearity angle distributions of the samples in fig. 10. One can see a bump in fig. lOc corresponding to the Z°

5. Discussions and conclusions The M~dependence of the radiative correction has been studied around the Z° pole. The result shows that the correction is fairly large in the energy region above the Z° pole. This does not mean the breakdown of perturbative calculation. In this region the correction is dominated by the radiative tail of the Z° peak. The percentage correction is large because we compare the tail with the Born cross section in the off-pole region. The generator gives both “elastic” and “radiative Bhabha events. Here, the “elastic” contains not only the elastic events but also those events with a soft photon of energy less than k~.The “radiative” or the “hard photon” events are the rest. Thus the ratio of “elastic” and “radiative” depends on k~and the separation is artificial because the sum of two parts gives a cross section

S. Kuroda et aL

/ Bhabha scattering at high energy

independent of kc if the soft photon approximation is valid. Therefore, in principle, we can choose k~of any value, if it is smaller than the threshold energy of the detector. The method used for event generation, however, gives rise to a restriction on k~,since the “elastic” cross section is not positive definite for small kc (6~less than 1 in fig. 2). One solution to get rid of the negative cross section is to include some of the “radiative” events into the “elastic” events. For example, when the photon is emitted along the final electron or positron, one cannot observe them separately, due to the finite resolution for determining the position in the detector. This type of events can be regarded as the “elastic” one. In order to see how does the correction change by this modification, we calculate the radiative Bhabha scattering with collinear photon in QED. Here the word “collinear” means that the photon is emitted into the direction of e~or e within a small cone as shown in fig. 12. We set 1 degree for half of its opening angle. The results are shown in table 1 together with contributions of other parts, namely, soft photon and virtual corrections. In the table we also include the contribution from the initial collinear photon (a collinear photon to the initial electron or positron). What one can see from the result is the following: 1. About half of the negative soft photon comes from the inside of the collinear cone (collinear soft photon). 2. The contribution of the hard collinear photon amounts to be 30% of the lowest cross section. 3. The total collinear photon contribution (HARD(CONE)) is approximately 15%. Thus inclusion of the hard collinear photon into the “elastic” reduces the negative cross section. Another way to solve the problem is the exponentiation of the soft photon contributions. The negative cross section comes from the double logarithmic term in ~ ~8 ln(2 k~/W), where /3 is the Bond factor. The probability to generate the “elastic” event is calculated by

Two larger and two smaller cones show final and initial collinear photon, respectively. The hard andinside the soft photon are the collinear one collinear outside and the collinear sphere, respectively.

The negative probability is avoided by summing up contributions of the double logalithmic terms of all order. This is accomplished by the modification, 1

+ 8vs

(2k~/W)~(1 + 6residual).

By this way we have a positive definite “elastic” cross section for any kc because ~residual ~S fV((a/iT) 1n(s/m~)). In conclusion we have finished coding a Bhabha event generator and obtained various distributions by using it. The details of the program will be described in another paper. We used the symbolic manipulation program REDUCE in calculating the exact squared matrix element of the hard photon emission diagrams. Since the result contains about 3000 lines in FORTRAN code, it requires very long CPU time to integrate them over the phase volume by BASES. To overcome the problem one of the authors made

Table 1 The contributions from collinear photon, soft and virtual corrections in QED at = 70 GeV. HARD(INIT) and HARD(FINAL) are the initial and final collinear hard photon corrections, respectively. SOF1’(OUT) means the contribution from outside of collinear cones in the soft photon contribution (SOFT). HARD(CONE) is sum of collinear hard photon and collinear soft photon. The virtual (VIRTUAL) cross section is devided into three parts, vertex (VERTEX), vacuum polarization (LOOP) and box (BOX). TOTAL is sum of all component. Conditions used are 35 ° <8 <145 °, acollinearity angle cut ~ = 10 ° and k~= 1 GeV. All numerical values are the ratio to the Born cross section cos(9)

a preprocessor for REDUCE output which produced a FORTRAN code suitable for the vector processor. Integration is performed by VBASES [16], the supercomputer version of BASES. We used the supercomputer HITAC S810/10 at KEK. The CPU time for the vectorized program is about 46 times shorter than that for the original version on a scalar computer FACOM M382 so that the integration of a full squared matrix element finishes typically in 5 mm. Further we made a numerical comparison between our exact squared matrix element and an approximate formula given

in ref. [17] and obtained excellent agreement. A program using this formula was also coded, run and we found that even on a scalar machine like FACOM M382 the CPU time becomes comparable to the supercomputer. Acknowledgement This work was made in course of the theoretical studies for TRISTAN e~e project. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the members of the project for useful discussions.
