What are collinear mass, visible mass, effective mass, and invariant mass? These terms appear quite frequently in particle physics papers but I did not find any resource where these terms are properly defined and distinguished. Can somebody help me with this or redirect me to a resource?

For example, see the following plot: enter image description here

    @Qmechanic The question is not related to the link you gave. I am asking a completely different concept. – Invariance Sep 05 '17 at 17:09
