Tree-level soft emission for two pairs of quarks
摘要
We compute the tree-level current for the emission of two soft quark-antiquark pairs in a hard scattering. We also compute the square of this current and discuss the resulting color correlations, featuring dipole correlations and three-parton correlations. This object is essential for analyzing the infrared singularities at next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading-order (N4LO) predictions in perturbative QCD.
