Tree scattering in Yukawa theory
ID: tree-scattering-in-yukawa-theory
For a real scalar coupled through , the scalar-fermion Feynman vertex is . Two-fermion scattering has scalar exchange in the and channels with a relative minus from exchanging identical external fermions. Fermion-antifermion scattering has exchange and annihilation, again with a relative fermionic minus for a fixed state ordering. Fermion-scalar scattering has the two orderings along one open fermion line, using internal momenta and ; these have the same sign. The Mandelstam variables specify the propagator denominators.
