NLO calculations of the exclusive processes in pQCD
Abstract
We present a generally applicable reduction formalism which makes it possible to express an arbitrary tensor and scalar one-loop Feynman integral, with N external lines and massless propagators, in terms of a basic set of eight fundamental scalar Feynman integrals with 2, 3, and 4 external lines, for arbitrary external kinematics. The formalism is particularly suitable for the NLO calculations of exclusive processes at large momentum transfer in pQCD, where all previously developed reduction methods fail due to the presence of collinear external on-shell lines.
