Using the fine structure constant

[math]\displaystyle{ \alpha \equiv \frac{e^2}{4\pi} }[/math]

In the center of mass frame the Mandelstam variables are given by:

[math]\displaystyle{ s \equiv 4E^{*2} }[/math]


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


[math]\displaystyle{ u \equiv -2p^{*2}(1+\cos{\theta}) }[/math]


[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{d\sigma}{d\Omega}=\frac{\alpha ^2}{8E^{*2}}\left ( \frac{(t^2+s^2)}{u^2}-\frac{2s^2}{tu}+\frac{(u^2+s^2)}{t^2}\right ) }[/math]
