General Relations

Angular Distribution of Two-Body Decay

Let's begin with a general amplitude for the two-body decay of a state with angular momentum quantum numbers J,m. Specifically, we want to know the amplitude of this state having daughter 1 with trajectory $\Omega =(\phi ,\theta )$. We can also describe the angular momentum between the daughters as being L and spin sum as s. Alternatively, we will label the daughters as having helicities of $\lambda _{1}$ and $\lambda _{2}$ or direction of decay (specified by daughter 1) of

$\langle \Omega \lambda _{1}\lambda _{2}|U|Jm\rangle =\sum _{L,S}\langle \Omega \lambda _{1}\lambda _{2}|Jm\lambda _{1}\lambda _{2}\rangle \langle Jm\lambda _{1}\lambda _{2}|JmLS\rangle \langle JmLS|U|Jm\rangle$	simple insertion of complete sets of states for recoupling
$=\sum _{L,S}\left[{\sqrt {\frac {2J+1}{4\pi }}}D_{m\lambda }^{J*}(\Omega ,0)\right]\left[{\sqrt {\frac {2L+1}{2J+1}}}\left({\begin{array}{cc|c}L&S&J\\0&\lambda &\lambda \end{array}}\right)\left({\begin{array}{cc|c}S_{1}&S_{2}&S\\\lambda _{1}&-\lambda _{2}&\lambda \end{array}}\right)\right]a_{LS}^{J}$	Substitution of each bra-ket with their respective formulae. $\lambda =\lambda _{1}-\lambda _{2}$ Note that in the event of one daughter being spin-less, the second Clebsch-Gordan coefficient is 1

Isospin Projections

One must also take into account the various ways isospin of daughters can add up to the isospin quantum numbers of the parent, requiring a term:

$C^{a,b}=\left({\begin{array}{cc|c}I^{a}&I^{b}&I\\I_{z}^{a}&I_{z}^{b}&I_{z}^{a}+I_{z}^{b}\end{array}}\right)$

where a=1 and b=2, referring to the daughter number. Because an even-symmetric angular wave function (i.e. L=0,2...) imply that 180 degree rotation is equivalent to reversal of daughter identities, a,b becoming b,a on must write down the symmetrized expression:

$C={\frac {1}{\sqrt {2}}}\left[C^{a,b}+(-1)^{L}C^{b,a}\right]$
