Title: Threshold Kinematic Constraints and Correlations of Helicity Amplitudes

Total spin helicity amplitudes are found to be the natural helicity combination for threshold behavior. The pseudothreshold kinematic properties are found to be similar to those at the direct threshold if the total spin helicity amplitudes are modified by appropriate sign changes in their defining linear combinations. The threshold correlations are related to kinematic-singularity-free helicity amplitudes.Read More
