To implement crossing symmetry with the annihilation labels, replace the old scattering four-momenta by . The scattering Mandelstam variables then become , where now , and . ConsequentlyIn the centre-of-momentum frame, take between the incoming electron and outgoing positive muon, . For negligible masses, and . ThereforeDefining using the outgoing negative muon interchanges and and leaves the result unchanged.
