Graphical analysis of infrared divergences

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

By the graphical method, it has been proved that all infrared divergences in the quantum electro-dynamics can be summed up into a simple form, and the result is a generalization of the classical Bloch-Nordsieck formula.

Riassunto

Col metodo grafico è stato dimostrato che tutte le divergenze infrarosse nella elettrodinamica quantistica possono essere condensate in una forma semplice, risultandone una generalizzazione della formula classica di Bloch-Nordsieck.
