The complex relation between production and scattering amplitudes

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

The unitarity relation, Im(A)=T* A, is derived for a three-body production amplitude, A, that consists of a complex linear combination of elements of the two-body scattering amplitude, T. We conclude that the unitarity relation does not impose a realness condition on the coefficients in the expansion of, A, in terms of, T.
