Abstract

We derive the generalized partial wave expansion for MNM \rightarrow N scattering amplitude in terms of spinor helicity variables. The basis amplitudes of the expansion with definite angular momentum jj consist of the Poincare Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, while jj constrains the UV physics that could generate the corresponding operators at tree level. Moreover, we obtain a series of selection rules that restrict the anomalous dimension matrix of effective operators and the way how effective operators contribute to some 2N2 \rightarrow N amplitudes at the loop level.
