Radiative corrections to the energy loss of high-energy muons — Alexander Sandrock, •Thorben Menne, and Jan Soedingrekso — TU Dortmund

High-energy muons can travel large thicknesses of matter. For underground neutrino and cosmic ray detectors the energy loss of muons has to be known accurately for simulations. The processes through which muons loose energy are ionization, direct pair production, bremsstrahlung and inelastic nuclear interaction. Next-to-leading order corrections to the bremsstrahlung energy loss are presented.
