t Channel

The t quantity is known as the square of the 4-momentum transfer

[math]t \equiv \left({\mathbf P_1^*}- {\mathbf P_1^{'*}}\right)^2=\left({\mathbf P_2^{*}}+ {\mathbf P_2^{'*}}\right)^2[/math]

[math]t \equiv \left({\mathbf P_1^*}- {\mathbf P_1^{'*}}\right)^2[/math]

[math]t \equiv \mathbf P_1^{*2}-2 \mathbf P_1^* \mathbf P_1^{'*}+ \mathbf P_1^{'*2}[/math]

[math]t \equiv 2m_1^2-2E_1^*E_1^{'*}+2p_1^*p_1^{'*}[/math]

[math]t \equiv 2m_1^*-2E_1^{*2}+2p_1^{*2}cos\ \theta[/math]

[math]t \equiv -2p_1^{*2}(1-cos\ \theta)[/math]
