Topics include helicity amplitudes and polarization, Gasiorowicz and CGLN normalizations of the A and B amplitudes, s-u and s-t crossing, and t-channel isospin expansions. They also cover relations among the various amplitudes, partial-wave catalogs, the differential cross section, and the optical theorem. One page records tips for finding reports in the library.

=> Beforegoingontocalculate thet-channel helicity amplitudes, itisnecessary tounderstand clearly the spinor vofDirac- theory. First, consider
aparticle (ferméon) (not anantifermion) travelling inthe +zdirection with
z-component ofspin equal to+4. Inother words, this particle has helicity +.
The question is: which spinor describes such aparticle. Aseverybody knows,
the answer is:
U(RS)=UCpepeSateinsasthowd)(3)\e w(9 + 1S)= = ate = Sad =F\oy BPs(1)
7 . .erm
.
: Somehow, everyone knows that (1,0) represents anelectron orfermion with spin ‘
+%along the zaxis. This isthewayd,issetup. 1
Now, consider ananti-fermion travelling inthe +sdiréction with spin i
inthe plus 2direction. Thie isapositive helicity anti-fermion. Everything
isthe same asbefore, except this isanantifermion. Question: which spinor 1
represents such aparticle? The answer igopposite what myintuition suggests.

This rather subtle point isdiscussed ~ °inBidpage68;Thepointissimply (5)this: this state v(p,s) represents .

with spin down isahole with spin up, just asinsolid state physics.
Inourpresent application, wehave our anti-nucleon travelling inthe
_-> =direction, Ifthis anti-nucleon has +'helicity, then ithas spin inthe
~2direction. Thus, for the +helicity antinucleon, one should use v=(1,0).
Naively,-this iswhat one might expect inthe first place, but wehave seen
that itisreally acase ofadouble-negative.

Comment onCrossing.
Ihavebeenusingthereduction formulae ofaxiomatic field theory toprove these crossing relations. Field theory happens to
‘beamodel inwhich crossing istrues But really crossing ismore
general. Itisthe analyticity statement that the 3channel amplitudes
are just 3boundary values of one hugongous analytic function] Inthis
general frame ofreference, all these crossing relations are trivial
: and infact belong on the same level askinematics.
For example, toshow S-U crossing relations, wewould simply
observe that T(s,t,u) issupposed togiven the scattering amplitudes
. inall three channels, Here the various spin, helicity, isospin ete
indices are suppressed. Now, ifthe sand the uchannel are the same
channel, then itmust betrue that T(s,t,u) =T(u,t,s). Itcould be
noother way. Then all the other details follow like B(s,u) =-B(u,s)
simply from the definition ofB.Ifweadd isospin, the statement is .
alittle more complicated, but the results are all the same (seeMartin Spearman equation (5.100) for‘acomplete statement ofcrossing
with isospin shown explicitly. See equation (7.34) for acomplete
statement ofcrossing with helicity shown explicitly. )
About Aand B.

Itwould benice ifwecould avoid these extra overall minus signs.
Recalling that the charge parity ofacharged state isarbitrary (asopposed
: tothe charge parity ofaneutral state), wecan avoid the above minus
signs byincluding them inthe definition of|byand|#) Inother words, choose:
: Upr=+lp7? 7- Ipp= +le-2>
- Cly=-le> p= lepat+lED
Uy=-l
Thus, wechoose the phase sothat the states come out with +signe. Now the
only confusion isthereversal oftheI,sign.

Derivation ofSingh's DCS equation from t-channel amplitudes,
Wehave already done this using the s-channel amplitudes, and after moh

ineither sortchannel amplitudes. Ofcourse itisalways thes-channel DCS. |So,westart asbefore: " !(2 ye : geeSTAYTeETE i . ri ae ~ 1 at us :

Inthe case ofpiontnucleon scattering, wemust deal with the Regge !
expansion inthe t-channel toget out the high energy PI-N behavior.
The t-channel process ist

For the T,, and T__ amplitudes, J-0 isasense-sense point, sothere
are nomysterious factors yet (but wait till below). For the amplitude
Ty- wehave \=1.For this amplitude, Je0 issense-nonsense. Thus, for
sure thie amplitude has asquare root, zero:

Forthis same amplitude, J--1 isnondense~nonsense, since =| andp20.

sense-nonsenge because "d=-\ and so .Thus, wemust include asquare
root zero at J==1 also:

‘The business of "sense-nonsense” choosing does not come into play

2.Here are some of the details: '

everpresent lefthandcut. b)both ofthese scattering amplitudes have onepole. Inthe full ”

subtractions and then just "add" the subtractions. You have to
ifelude them from the start téget itall right.
4.Eventually Ishould compare mfresult withtheresult inJacksons notes
for 227 which Ican trust iscorrect. There certainly are other options
for chodsing the subtraction points. Also, usually one does not need
any subtzactions atall forthe (-)disprel. Whereas, usually you need“notonebuttwosubtractions fortheGone.Thereason forthislies
inthecrossingproperty. Thiscrossingpropertycausesthe(-) [disprel toconverge faster byanextra power. Moreover, usually you
