Abstract
The cross section for the process is calculated using a matrix obtained from a Lagrangian formalism. The matrix is provided with a suitable cutoff to damp the large (off-shell) momentum components and the total cross section is found to be strongly dependent on the cutoff range parameter taken, i.e., to how fast the matrix falls off as it is taken off shell. It is argued that this is to be expected physically and that this sensitivity might provide a means of studying the off-shell matrix.
