FCLoopAddScalingParameter[topo, la, rules]
multiplies masses and momenta in the propagators of the topology topo
by the scaling parameter la
according to the scaling rules in rules
. The id
of the topology remains unchanged. This is useful e.g. for asymptotic expansions of the corresponding loop integrals given as GLIs.
The scaling variable should be declared as FCVariable
via the DataType
mechanism.
Notice that if all terms in a propagator have the same scaling, the scaling variable in the respective propagator will be set to unity.
[la, FCVariable] = True; DataType
We declare the external 4-momentum q
as our hard scale, while the mass mc
is soft
= FCLoopAddScalingParameter[FCTopology[prop1LtopoC11, {SFAD[{{I p1, 0}, {-mc^2, -1}, 1}],
topoScaled [{{I (p1 - q), 0}, {-mc^2, -1}, 1}]}, {p1}, {q}, {SPD[q, q] ->mb^2}, {}], la,
SFAD{q -> la^0 q, mc -> la^1 mc}]

Having set up the scaling we can now use FCLoopGLIExpand
to expand the loop integrals belonging to this topology up to the desired order in la
. Here we choose \mathcal{O}(\lambda^4)
