Massless vector pole of the Veneziano amplitude (source code)

= Massless vector pole of the Veneziano amplitude
{title2=$\operatorname*{Res}_{s=0}A=-(t+2)$}

The pole at $s=0$ has <residue> $-(t+2)=-(t-u)/2$ for unit-slope tachyons. It is proportional to conserved scalar-pair vector currents and linear in the scattering-angle cosine, exhibiting a massless spin-one intermediate string state.
