| In [[particle physics]], a '''nonoblique correction''', also called a '''direct correction''', refers to a particular type of [[Renormalization|radiative correction]] to the [[electroweak]] sector of the Standard Model. Nonoblique corrections are defined in four-[[fermion]] scattering processes ({{Subatomic particle|Antielectron}} + {{Subatomic particle|Electron}} → {{Subatomic particle|quark}} + {{Subatomic particle|Antiquark}} ) at the [[CERN]] [[LEP]] collider. There are three classes of radiative corrections to these processes: [[vacuum polarization]] corrections, [[vertex function|vertex corrections]], and box corrections. The vertex and box corrections, which depend on the identity of the initial and final state fermions, are referred to as the non-oblique corrections.

| (The vacuum polarization corrections are referred to as [[oblique correction]]s, since they only affect the mixing and propagation of the gauge bosons and they do not depend on which type of fermions appear in the initial or final states.) An example of a vertex correction is the nonuniversality (flavor dependence) of the couplings of the quarks and leptons to the charged and neutral weak currents. Another example is the [[anomalous magnetic dipole moment]].

| In order to affect the nonoblique corrections, new particles must couple directly to the external fermions. Such couplings are expected to be suppressed in most cases, with one exception being the <math>Z b \bar{b}</math> vertex. Together with the oblique corrections, nonoblique corrections can be used to constrain models of new physics [[beyond the Standard Model]].

Nice to meet you, my title is Refugia. Years in the past we moved to North Dakota. For years he's been working as a receptionist. To collect coins is what her family and her enjoy.
