Massive tree-level splitting functions beyond kinematical limits
Abstract
We present a compact form of the massive 1 3 tree-level QCD splitting functions and discuss a decomposition of the results in terms of lower-order expressions, scalar dipole antenna functions and pure higher-order remainders. The two-gluon radiator functions introduced in this context are novel and generalize expressions obtained from the double-soft approximation. Our results are obtained without reference to soft or quasi-collinear limits.
