A New Method for Computing Helicity Amplitudes
Abstract
An helicity formalism for perturbative calculations is presented. It is based on the formal insertion in spinor lines of a complete set of states built up with unphysical spinors. It is particularly convenient when massive spinors are present. Its application to e+\,e-\,→ b\, b\,W+W- is briefly discussed.
