Feb 8, 2023 at 19:54 comment added Hollis Williams Soft theorems originated in QED with the work of Bloch and Nordsieck in 1937 and were significantly developed by Low, Gell-Mann, Goldberger, Kazes, Yennie, Frautschi, and Suura between 1954 and 1961. In his 1965 paper Weinberg simplified the formalism and also generalised their soft theorems to include gravitons.

Feb 6, 2023 at 22:44 comment added Buzz Weinberg's book is nice, but it's nothing like a research monograph. He gives his preferred version of how to treat infrared divergences, but that was already textbook material by the time his book came out, and he leaves plenty of sub-leading stuff out. The main results aren't even Weinberg's, only the simplified formalism. The real legwork was started by Bloch and Nordsieck, [Phys. Rev. 52, 54 (all the way back in1937!)] and completed by Yennie, Frautschi, and Suura [Annals of Physics 13, 379 (1961)] before Weinberg even touched the problem.
