Elastic electron-electron scattering. The electromagnetic tree-level Feynman diagrams exchange a photon in the t and u channels, with a relative minus sign from the identical fermions. In the massless limit the initial-spin-averaged squared scattering amplitude is 2e4[(s2+u2)/t2+(s2+t2)/u2+2s2/(tu)]. The exchange interference is essential. A final-state counting factor for integrating a cross section is separate from this squared scattering amplitude.
