e+e- --> gamma f0 --> gamma pi0 pi0 cross section with VMD
Find the cross-section of ##e^+e^- \to \gamma f_0(980) \to \gamma \pi^0 \pi^0## using the vector meson dominance model.
Some Feynman's rules:
The photon propagator is -i \frac{g_{\mu\nu}}{q^2}.
The propagator of ##\varphi##-meson is ##-i \frac{g_{\mu\nu} - \frac{q_\mu q_\nu}{m_\varphi^2}}{q^2 - m_\varphi^2 + i m_\phi \Gamma_\varphi}##, ##\Gamma_\varphi## - the particle width .
The ##\gamma \varphi##-vertex is ##-i e \frac{m_\varphi^2}{g_\varphi}##.
##g_{\varphi \omega f_0}## is the ##\varphi \omega f_0##-vertex constant.
The effective Lagrangian is
<br /> \mathcal{L} = \mathcal{L}_{QED} + \mathcal{L}_{em} + \mathcal{L}_{str},<br />
where
<br /> \mathcal{L}_{str} = g_{\varphi \omega f_0} {F_\varphi}^{\alpha \beta} {F_\omega}^{\mu \nu} \varepsilon_{\alpha \beta \mu \nu} f_0 + g_{f_0 \pi^0 \pi^0} f_0 \pi \pi,<br />
<br /> \mathcal{L}_{em} = -e \frac{{m_\varphi}^2}{g_\varphi} \Phi^\mu A_\mu -e \frac{{m_\omega}^2}{g_\omega} \Omega^\mu A_\mu.<br />
## \Phi^\mu, \Omega^\mu, A_\mu, f_0, \pi ## - ##\varphi##, ##\omega##, photon, ##f_0##, ##\pi^0## fields.
After that I try to write the matrix element for the ##e^+e^- \to \gamma f_0(980) \to \gamma \pi^0 \pi^0## diagram. There is my trouble.
