  3. We thank Dr.A. Martin for having pointed out this point to us.

  4. The threshold behaviour of the partial-wave amplitudes can be shown if one uses the analyticity domain of the scattering amplitude proved byMartin, with the further assumption that the amplitude is bounded at threshold. For a simple and elegant proof, see:P. Moussa andR. Stora:Lectures given at the International School of Elementary-Particle Physics (Herceg Novi, 1966).

  5. We have written the constant term in the formA−2E whereA represents the constant term in the expansion of the on-the-mass-shell amplitude. The same holds for the termD+E.

  8. The parametersB andC are always identical in both the second, and third-order calculations because they are determined by the threshold unitarity equations which are common in both cases.
