摘要: Abstract Radiative corrections to processes that involve the production and subsequent decay of unstable particles are complex due various theoretical practical problems. The so-called double-pole approximation offers a way out these This method is applied reaction e+e− → W+W− 4 fermions, which allows us address all key issues dealing with particles, like gauge invariance, interactions between different stages reaction, overlapping resonances. Within complete O (α) electroweak evaluated for this off-shell W-pair process. Examples effect on number distributions presented. These comprise mass angular as well photon-energy spectrum.
