NLO Rutherford Scattering and the Kinoshita-Lee-Nauenberg Theorem
We calculate to next-to-leading order accuracy the high-energy elastic scattering cross section for an electron off of a classical point source. We use the MS renormalization scheme to tame the ultraviolet divergences while the infrared singularities are dealt with using the well known Kinoshita-Lee...
