Parity violation in Møller scattering within low-energy effective field theory

Abstract

We include electroweak effects in Moller scattering at low energies in an effective field theory approach and compute the left-right parity-violating asymmetry. The calculation using low-energy effective field theory provides a solid framework to integrate out heavy particles with masses of the order of the electroweak scale, allowing the resummation of all large logarithms between the electroweak scale and the scale, where QCD perturbation theory breaks down. The NLO electroweak corrections with leading logarithmic resummation, combined with QED corrections at NNLO and hadronic effects are implemented into the Monte Carlo framework McMule. Thus, we obtain a fully differential description and present results adapted to the MOLLER experiment. The potential impact of large logarithms at the next-to-leading logarithmic level is investigated.
