The effects of the widths on the one-loop electroweak corrections to the $pp \to WW$ process

In this paper, we study the effects of the widths of unstable particles on the one-loop electroweak corrections for the $pp \to WW$ process at the TeV scale within the framework of the complex mass scheme. We also investigate, for this same process, the unitarity of the theory at high energies.
