SUMMARY
After modeling the Lagrangian and extracting Feynman rules, one can calculate the matrix element, which leads to the decay width and subsequently the branching ratio (BR). The discussion highlights the potential to explore alternative methods for calculating the branching ratio, including the application of the Euler-Lagrangian equation. Utilizing these approaches can enhance the understanding and calculation of branching ratios in particle physics.
