Radiative corrections to weak interaction processes
arXiv:2609.12182
Abstract
The search for physics beyond the Standard Model in low-energy weak interaction processes requires a precise knowledge of the Standard Model background at tree- and loop-level. In many such cases, radiative corrections represent one of the major sources of theory uncertainty due to the non-perturbative structures of nucleon or nuclei. In this review, I discuss several modern strategies based on dispersion relation, lattice gauge theory and nuclear many-body calculations to pin down the hadronic and nuclear uncertainties in the radiative corrections to low-energy weak interaction processes such as beta decays and parity-violating electron-nucleus scattering.
