Kinematical singularities of the transversity amplitudes

Кинематические сингулярности поперечных амплитуд

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

All different mass cases for the two-body processes have been classified and kinematical singularities of the transversity amplitudes have been found, except in the zero-mass cases. It is found that the singularities at the thresholds and pseudothresholds are factorizable while at the boundary of the physical region they are rather complicated, in contrast with the helicity amplitudes. Therefore there are no constraints for transversity at the thresholds and pseudothresholds, while there are constraints at the physical region boundary (i.e. at the forward and backward directions).

Riassunto

Si sono classificati tutti i differenti casi delle masse nei processi di due corpi e si sono trovate le ampiezze di trasversalità, tranne nei casi della massa nulla. Si trova che le singolarità alle soglie ed alle pseudosoglie sono fattorizzabili mentre al contorno della regione fisica sono piuttosto complicate in contrasto con le ampiezze di elicità. Quindi non ci sono costrizioni per le trasversalità alle soglie e pseudosoglie, mentre ce ne sono al contorno della regione fisica (cioè nelle direzioni in avanti ed all’indietro).

Резюме

Были классифиципованны все случаи различных масс для двухчастичных процессов, и были найдены кинематические сингулярности поперечных амплитуд, кроме случаев с нулевой массой. Получено, что сингулярности на порогах и псевдо-порогах являются факторизуемыми, хотя на границе физической области они явяются довольно сложными, в противоположность спиральным амплитудам. Следовательно, не существует ограничений длл поперечности на порогах и псевдопорогах, хотя существуют ограничения на границе физической одласти (т.е. для направлений вперед и назад).
