For the decays with a photon emission, the amplitudes clearly exhibit the factorization property and the differential decay rates vanish at specific values of a certain variable which are determined only by the electric charges of the particles involved and independent of the particle masses and the various couplings. For the decays with a gluon emission, even though the zeros are washed away, the differential decay rates still have distinct minima. The branching ratios as a function of leptoquark masses are presented for the scalar leptoquark decays. We also comment on the decays of vector particles into two fermions and a photon.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1994-10-26T23:18:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "scalar particles", "radiative decay", "differential decay rates", "gluon emission", "study amplitude zeros" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
