44 Conclusion BS in general EBA ector Boson Scattering is a key tool in probing the mechanism of ESB. At the LHC all contributing processes need to be fully understood kinematical cuts are required to suppress background contributions The EBA may quantify the dominant region of BS The photon pole only appears as an artefact in a bad on-shell projection. For standard BS cuts the approximation is not applicable as the collinearity of the bosons is not ensured. If the collinearity is ensured the relative difference only amounts to 3.5 %. the EBA yields an appropriate approximation in certain kinematic regions! Logarithmic E Corrections Both LL and NLL need to be taken into account. The NLO E correction amounts to 13.6%, which is compatible with the literature.
