Notes

(1) Observables involving products of four or more momenta arising from energy correlations between four or more detectors do not appear to have any immediate application [5].

(2) Note that the vanish for outside the range to (triangle inequality) or if the sum is odd and two of the are equal (symmetry property of the 3- symbols).

(3) If the plane formed by the and axes is chosen to be in the plane of the event, the from (3) all the are real so that the deduced from (5) will also be real.

(4) denotes the sum of the processes and , calculated through . According to QCD, should be the dominant process away from resonances. Details are given in [1].
