Gauge-boson production in electron-photon collisions

We summarize results for the processes $e^-\gamma \to \nu W^-, e^-Z, e^-\gamma$ within the electroweak Standard Model. We discuss the essential features of the corresponding lowest-order cross-sections and present numerical results for the unpolarized cross-sections including the complete $O(\alpha)$ virtual, soft-photonic, and hard-photonic corrections. While at low energies the weak corrections are dominated by the leading universal corrections, at high energies we find large, non-universal corrections, which arise from vertex and box diagrams involving non-Abelian gauge couplings.
