Abstract
We use the theory of Yennie, Frautschi, and Suura to realize, via Monte Carlo methods, the process at energies reached at the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) and the CERN Large Hadron Collider, where and are quarks or leptons. QED infrared divergences are canceled to all orders in perturbation theory. The resulting Monte Carlo event generator SSC-YFS2 is used to study the effects of initial-state photon radiation on these processes in the SSC environment. Sample Monte Carlo data are presented and discussed. We find that the respective multiple-photon effects must be taken into account in discussing precise predictions for SSC physics processes.
