Example text

For all loops with momentum k, we must integrate over the momentum: d4 k/(2π)4 . This corresponds to the addition of quantum mechanical amplitudes. ◦ For fermion loops we have to take the trace and multiply it by the factor −1. Chapter 10. Processes in the lowest order of perturbation theory 57 ◦ If two diagrams differ for an odd number of fermionic interchanges, then they must differ by a relative minus sign. 1.
