Antenna Splitting Functions for Massive Particles

Abstract

An antenna shower is a parton shower in which the basic move is a color-coherent 2-to-3 parton splitting process. In this paper, we give compact forms for the spin-dependent antenna splitting functions involving massive partons of spin 0 and spin 1/2.
