Detailed Description

The VVTVertexclass is the implementation of the scalar-scalar-tensor vertex.

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

All implementations of this vertex should inherit from it and implement the virtual setCoupling member.

The form of the vertex is

$-\frac{i\kappa}2\left[m^2_Sg_{\mu\nu}-k_{1\mu}k_{2\nu}-k_{1\nu}k_{2\mu} +g_{\mu\nu}k_1\cdot k_2\right]\epsilon^{\mu\nu}_3\phi_1\phi_2$
