Massive Quark-Gluon Scattering Amplitudes at Tree Level

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

Results for four-, five-, and six-parton tree amplitudes for massive quark-antiquark scattering with gluons are calculated using the recursion relations of Britto, Cachazo, Feng, and Witten. The required diagrams are generated using shifts of the momenta of a pair of massless legs to complex values. Checks verifying the calculations are described, and a simple formula for the shifted spinors of an internal gluon is presented.
