contents We study the crossing matrix of a braid and introduce a polynomial invariant for braid systems that is invariant under Hurwitz equivalence. As an application to the study of surface braids and surface links, we also define an invariant that can be used as an indicator of the necessity of Euler fusion or fission between braid systems.
