Analytical O(αs) corrections to the beam frame double-spin density matrix elements of e+e−→tt¯

2016

We provide analytical results for the $O({\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s})$ corrections to the double-spin density matrix elements in the reaction ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}t\overline{t}$. These concern the elements $ll$, $lt$, $ln$, $tt$, $tn$, and $nn$ of the double-spin density matrix elements where $l$, $t$, $n$ stand for longitudinal, transverse and normal orientations with respect to the beam frame spanned by the electron and the top quark momentum.
