Dalitz plot

The Dalitz plot is a two-dimensional plot often used in particle physics to represent the relative frequency of various manners in which the products of certain three-body decays may move apart.

Square Dalitz plot
Modeling of the common representation of the Dalitz plot can be complicated due to its nontrivial shape. One can however introduce such kinematic variables so that Dalitz plot gets a rectangular (or squared) shape: m'(1,2) = \frac{1}{\pi} \arccos\left(2 * \frac{m(1,2)-m(1,2)_{min}}{m(1,2)_{max}-m(1,2)_{min}} -1\right) ; \theta'(1,2) = \frac{1}{\pi} \theta(1,2) ; where m(1,2)  is the invariant mass of particles 1 and 2 in a given decay event; m(1,2)_{max} and m(1,2)_{min}  are its maximal and minimal kinematically allowed values, while \theta(1,2)   is the angle between particles 1 and 3 in the rest frame of particles 1 and 2. This technique is commonly called "Square Dalitz plot" (SDP). ==References==
