We present a short comment on resummation of double-logarithmic (DL) contributions to decays of W and Z -bosons into charged fermion pairs. We show that resummation of DL corrections to the Z -boson decay leads to standard Sudakov form…

At energies that are large with respect to the electroweak scale, the electroweak corrections to scattering processes involve large logarithms that have to be resummed to obtain decent predictions. Soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) has…

The large double logarithm in loop-induced processes is one kind of logarithm at subleading power, which has a different origin from Sudakov double logarithms. We develop a method with soft-collinear effective theory to resum these large…
