Amplitude of the process $q \bar q \rightarrow \tau^+ \tau^-H$

I want calculate the cross section of the process $q \bar q \rightarrow \tau^+ \tau^-H$, where the Higgs takes the $vev$. My question is: if the Higgs takes the $vev$ the amplitude of the process is ...

Integral on phase space

I'd like to integrate the square amplitude in the phase space( in $d^3k/(2\pi)^3 2E_k$ and $d^3k'/(2\pi)^3 2E_k$) where $p$ and $p'$ are the 4-momentum of the input particles, $k$ and $k'$ 4-momentum ...

Annihilation Scattering Cross-Section $N_{n}+N_{n} \rightarrow \nu_{i} + \nu_{j}$ [closed]

I'm calculating the annihilation scattering cross section for fermionic dark matter candidate. I got the following result for the squared amplitude, $|\mathcal{M}|^2= \frac{h_{ji}f^{*}_{ij}}{(m^{2}_{{...

How to integrate the phase space volume for 2 -> 2 scattering processes?

In the QFT book from Schwartz it is stated that $$ d\sigma = \frac{1}{4E_1E_2|\vec{v}_1-\vec{v}_2|}|\mathcal{M}|^2 d\Pi_{\text{LIPS}}\tag{5.22} $$ where $$ d\Pi_{\text{LIPS}} = (2\pi)^4\delta^4(\sum p)...

$n$-Body Phase Space Recurrence Relation

On slide 23 of these slides, it is stated that an $n$ body phase space element $d\Phi_n(P; p_1, \ldots, p_n)$ may be decomposed according to the recurrence relation \begin{align*} \mathrm{d} \Phi_{n}\...

3-Body Phase in a $2\rightarrow 3$ scattering [closed]

I am trying to calculate Bethe-Heitler cross section for pair production. I am starting from the well known formula \begin{equation} d\sigma=\cfrac{1}{2E_1 2E_p}\vert M_0\vert^2(2\pi)^4\delta^4(p_1+p-...

Gram determinant for the $2\to 3$ scattering cross-section

I'll repeat the part of my previous question regarding the topic: There is a book of Byckling and Kajantie, "Particle kinematics", discussing in particular (Chapter V) the kinematics of the $2\to 3$ ...

$2\to 3$ cross-section phase space simplification

Suppose the $2\to 3$ cross-section: $$ \sigma = (2\pi)^4\int \frac{d^{3}\mathbf p_{3}}{(2\pi)2E_{3}}\frac{d^{3}\mathbf p_{4}}{(2\pi)^{3}2E_{4}}\frac{d^{3}\mathbf p_{5}}{(2\pi)^{3}2E_{5}}|M(\mathbf p_{...

Differential cross section $d\sigma/dp^{\gamma}_{T}$?

Why we care about $d\sigma/dp^{\gamma}_{T}$? What the physical meaning of it? Why not plot $\sigma$ follow $p^{\gamma}_{T}$?. As in this picture.
