Problem

Consider the Lagrangian density in (2.84) for three non-identical Hermitian fields. Calculate the lowest order differential cross section in the center of mass for ϕ1(p⃗1)ϕ2(p⃗2)→ϕ1(p⃗3)ϕ2(p⃗4)\phi_1(\vec{p}_1)\phi_2(\vec{p}_2) \to \phi_1(\vec{p}_3)\phi_2(\vec{p}_4) as a function of ss and the CM scattering angle θ\theta for the special case m1=m2≠m3m_1 = m_2 \neq m_3.
