Inelastic Collisions for Small Momentum Transfers

Abstract

Let us denote by Pi> i = 1, 2, ... , 5, the four-momenta of the internal lines of the five-point single-loop graph (p~ = fLi). Each vertex may then be labeled by two suffices and we shall denote the four-momenta of the external particles (measured formally as incoming) by P12 = PI' P23 = P2, ... ,P51 = P5 (P~ = M~). Scalar product variables may be constructed as follows
