Applicability constraints of the Equivalence Theorem

  • 31 January 1997
Abstract
In this work we study the applicability of the Equivalence Theorem, either for unitary models or within an effective lagrangian approach. There are two types of limitations: the existence of a validity energy window and the use of the lowest order in the electroweak constants. For the first kind, we consider some methods, based on dispersion theory or the large N limit, that allow us to extend the applicability. For the second, we have obtained numerical estimates of the effect of neglecting higher orders in the perturbative expansion.
