The scalar field associated with fluctuations in the positions of the two branes, the ``radion'', plays an important role determining the cosmology and collider phenomenology of the Randall-Sundrum solution to the hierarchy problem. It is now well known th

This indicates that the longitudinally polarized gauge bosons are behaving as their eaten Gold-stone boson counterparts with corrections of order M W/E where E is the gauge boson energy.

With this substitution,the contributions from the diagrams in Fig.1(a),(b),or(c)indi-vidually leads to a contribution O(s2/M4W),but these terms cancel among each other due to electroweak gauge symmetry.The leading order result for the sum of these three diagrams, neglecting O(M2W/s)terms,is
