rho()

double smash::TwoBodyDecayStable::rho ( double  mass ) const

overrideprotectedvirtual

This is a virtual helper method which is used to write the width as Gamma(m) = Gamma_0 * rho(m) / rho(m_0).

This ensures that the width is properly normalized at the pole mass to Gamma(m_0) = Gamma_0. By default rho simply equals one, which corresponds to a constant width.

Parameters

[in]

mass

Resonance mass of the decay.

Returns

Width of the decay at the given mass.

Reimplemented from smash::TwoBodyDecay.

      pCM(m, particle_types_[0]->mass(), particle_types_[1]->mass());
