Abstract

Using the automatic system GRACE-LOOP, the full O(α)O(\alpha) electroweak corrections has been calculated for the process e+eW+μνˉμe^+e^- \to W^+\mu \bar{\nu}_{\mu}. The total correction to the cross section is found to be typically -6.4% at s=190\sqrt{s}=190 GeV with 1010^\circ cut on the muon angle from the beam, including the correction from the hard photon emission. It is observed that the correction is rather sensitive to the physical parameters. With the same conditions the correction corresponding to the real W-boson pair is -4.1% and hence the deviation is not negligible.
