class EnergyDependentWidth(s, mass0, gamma0, m_a, m_b, angular_momentum, meson_radius, *args, evaluate: bool = False, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: Expr

Mass-dependent width, coupled to the pole position of the resonance.

See Equation (50.28) in PDG2021, §Resonances, p.9 and [Asner et al., 2006], equation (6). Default value for phsp_factor is PhaseSpaceFactor.

Note that the BlattWeisskopfSquared of AmpForm is normalized in the sense that equal powers of \(z\) appear in the nominator and the denominator, while the definition in the PDG (as well as some other sources), always have \(1\) in the nominator of the Blatt-Weisskopf. In that case, one needs an additional factor \(\left(q/q_0\right)^{2L}\) in the definition for \(\Gamma(m)\).

With that in mind, the “mass-dependent” width in a relativistic_breit_wigner_with_ff becomes:

(1)#\[\begin{split} \begin{array}{rcl} \Gamma_{0}\left(s\right) &=& \frac{\Gamma_{0} B_{L}^2\left(q^2\left(s\right)\right) \rho\left(s\right)}{B_{L}^2\left(q^2_{0}\left(m_{0}^{2}\right)\right) \rho_{0}\left(m_{0}^{2}\right)} \\ \end{array}\end{split}\]

where \(B_L^2\) is defined by (1), \(q\) is defined by (1), and \(\rho\) is (by default) defined by (2).

Relativistic Breit-Wigner lineshape.

See Without form factor and [Asner et al., 2006].

Relativistic Breit-Wigner with BlattWeisskopfSquared factor.

See With form factor and PDG2021, §Resonances, p.9.

The general form of a relativistic Breit-Wigner with Blatt-Weisskopf form factor is:

(3)#\[\frac{\Gamma_{0} m_{0} \sqrt{B_{L}^2\left(d^{2} q^2\left(s\right)\right)}}{m_{0}^{2} - i m_{0} \Gamma_{0}\left(s\right) - s}\]

where \(\Gamma(s)\) is defined by (1), \(B_L^2\) is defined by (1), and \(q^2\) is defined by (1).

formulate_form_factor(s, m_a, m_b, angular_momentum, meson_radius) → Expr[source]#

Formulate a Blatt-Weisskopf form factor.

Returns the production process factor \(n_a\) from Equation (50.26) in PDG2021, §Resonances, p.9, which features the sqrt of a BlattWeisskopfSquared.

(4)#\[\sqrt{B_{L}^2\left(d^{2} q^2\left(s\right)\right)}\]
