We study the soft limit of one-photon radiation at next-to-leading power (NLP) in the framework of heavy-quark effective theory (HQET) to all orders in perturbation theory. We establish the soft theorem that for unpolarised scattering the radiative contribution up to NLP is entirely determined by the non-radiative amplitude. This generalises the Low-Burnett-Kroll (LBK) theorem for QED to all orders. All hard matching corrections can be calculated by applying the LBK differential operator to the non-radiative amplitude. The virtual corrections in the effective theory vanish beyond one loop, resulting in a one-loop exact soft function. As a first, non-trivial application we calculate the real-virtual-virtual electron-line corrections to muon-electron scattering at NLP in the soft limit.

Classical worldlines from scattering amplitudes
A new 'quantum worldline' representation makes the classical limit of scattering amplitudes exactly match worldline field theory integrands at two loops.

Running soft theorems in effective field theory
At one loop, the finite subleading parts of the soft photon and double-soft pion theorems carry Wilson coefficients whose RG running is dictated by the same EFT beta functions, while log terms remain universal.
