Abstract

We present a new method to investigate a class of diagrams which generalizes the sunset topology to any number of massive internal lines. Our attention is focused on the computation of the spectral density of these diagrams which is related to many-body phase space in DD dimensional space-time. The spectral density is determined by the inverse KK-transform of the product of propagators in configuration space. The inverse KK-transform reduces to the inverse Laplace transform in any odd number of space-time dimensions for which we present an explicit analytical result.
