Detailed Description

The SSSVertex class is the implementation of the interaction of three scalars.

It inherits from the AbstractSSSVertex class for the storage of the particles interacting at the vertex and implements the helicity calculations.

Any classes implementating the vertex should inherit from it and implement the virtual set Coupling member.

The form of the vertex is

Implements ThePEG::Helicity::AbstractSSSVertex.

virtual void ThePEG::Helicity::SSSVertex::setCoupling	(	Energy2	q2,
		tcPDPtr	part1,
		tcPDPtr	part2,
		tcPDPtr	part3
	)			[pure virtual]

Calculate the couplings.

This method is virtual and must be implemented in classes inheriting from this.

Parameters:

	q2	The scale for the coupling at the vertex.
	part1	The ParticleData pointer for the first particle.
	part2	The ParticleData pointer for the second particle.
	part3	The ParticleData pointer for the third particle.
