Abstract

By using the GRACE-Loop system, we calculate the full O(α)\mathcal{O}(\alpha) electroweak radiative corrections to the process e+ee+eγe^+e^- \rightarrow e^+e^- \gamma, which is important for future investigations at the International Linear Collider (ILC). With the GRACE-Loop system, the calculations are checked numerically by three consistency tests: ultraviolet finiteness, infrared finiteness, and gauge-parameter independence. The results show good numerical stability when quadruple precision is used. In the phenomenological results, we find that the electroweak corrections to the total cross section range from 4%\sim -4\% to 21%\sim -21\% when s\sqrt{s} varies from 250250 GeV to 11 TeV. The corrections also significantly affect the differential cross sections, which are a function of the invariant masses and angles and the final-particle energies. Such corrections will play an important role for the high-precision program at the ILC.
