A New Method for Computing Helicity Amplitudes

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

An helicity formalism for perturbative calculations is presented. It is based on the formal insertion in spinor lines of a complete set of states built up with unphysical spinors. It is particularly convenient when massive spinors are present. Its application to e+ebbˉW+We^+\,e^-\,\rightarrow b\,\bar b\,W^+W^- is briefly discussed.
