Abstract
A calculation of the neutrino counting reaction\(e^ + e^ - \to v\bar vy\) is presented and implemented in a Monte Carlo generator of unweighted events. The non-photonic corrections are included following the star-scheme. The photonic corrections have been exponentiated following the “inductive” and the “structure functions” approach. For a realistic experimental set-up, the total corrections around theZ 0 pole amount to ∼5% with respect to the one-loop result. The final precision achieved is better than 1%.
