Seminar

An Analytic Prescription for t-channel Singularities

by Joe Sato

Australia/Sydney
Description

The t-channel singularity is a divergence in the scattering amplitude which occurs when a stable particle propagating in t-channel scattering process  becomes an on-shell state. Such situations appear either in the system of collider experiments or in the context of the cosmological particle production. No scheme which is generally applicable is known. In this talk, I introduce a new formulation to identify and remove the source of the divergence. The scheme is fully analytical and various applications can be expected.
