referring to equations (10.5), (10.6) in the resource notes for Higgs decay into a fermion anti-fermion pair
lectures.lapth.cnrs.fr/standar

take note that (17.3), which is the absolute square of my probability amplitude, doesn't have a factor 2 because i haven't taken into account yet the other spin states of the fermion and anti-fermion in the decay process and you may refer to (10.5) in the resource material i have shared in the earlier toot and you may also notice that in the cited resource material, the reduced matrix (10.4) and the reduced matrix contained in (14.7) in my draft are the same although i have used different notations/symbols

i wanted to re-emphasize this in the latest updated version of my draft
------
The final states coming out with opposite spatial momenta, can happen only in the rest frame (center- of-mass frame) of the Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson doesn’t have spatial components of the four-momentum, as it decays, while the final states come out with equal energies in opposite directions, leading to (19.9.3).

terms that contain interactions of w^+- vector gauge bosons with members of lepton family. fermions involved expanded into + and - energy modes from such we get, for example, the term for the decay of w^+ vector bosons into an outgoing neutrino and outgoing positron, the anti-particle of electron

W^+ boson decays into an outgoing lefthanded top quark and outgoing lefthanded anti-bottom quark, seeing such interaction in the split up of involved fermions into + & - energy modes

updated from pages 53 to 58 it's clear in the construction that for the case of leptons, for example, righthanded leptons don't interact with the W^+- vector gauge bosons only their lefthanded counterparts and this is so since righthanded leptons have zero isospin however, seeing this would wait for the next updates in which we construct the covariant derivative terms for righthanded fermion singlets
