Bhabha-like scattering in the Rarita–Schwinger model at finite temperature

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we study a Bhabha-like scattering in a massive Rarita–Schwinger model at finite temperature. The analysis is conducted at the tree level and addresses temperature effects through the thermofield dynamics formalism. We consider the usual fermion-antifermion into fermion-antifermion scattering and compute the cross-section in order to investigate the influence of the finite temperature effects.
