The leading Standard Model gauge amplitudes are s-channel Z boson exchange and t-channel W boson exchange. They interfere. At collision energies well below the weak scale the cross section scales as GF2​s. In an inclusive high-energy Born calculation, the forward W-exchange region gives a nonzero limiting scale of order g4/mW2​, unlike a fixed-angle estimate. Angular cuts and beam polarization can change comparisons with other annihilation channels.
