Abstract

Accounting for double-logarithmic contributions to high-energy (>> 100 GeV) e+ e- annihilation into a quark or a lepton pair in the kinematics where the final particles are colinear to the e+e- beams leading to a sizable difference between the forward and backward scattering amplitudes, i.e. to the forward-backward asymmetry. When the annihilation is accompanied by emission of n electroweak bosons in the multi-Regge kinematics, it turns out that the cross sections of the photon and Z production have the identical energy dependence and asymptotically their ratio depends only on the Weinberg angle (is equal to tan2n thetaW) whereas the energy dependence of the cross section of the W production is suppressed by factor s-0.4 compared to them.
