In this presentation, we describe the GoSam (Golem/Samurai) framework for the automated computation of multi-particle scattering amplitudes at the one-loop level. The amplitudes are generated analytically in terms of Feynman diagrams, and…

We discuss the calculation of one-loop amplitudes in N=8 supergravity using MHV diagrams. In contrast to MHV amplitudes of gluons in Yang-Mills, tree-level MHV amplitudes of gravitons are not holomorphic in the spinor variables. In order to…

We present a prescription to calculate manifestly gauge invariant tree-level helicity amplitudes for arbitrary scattering processes with off-shell initial-state gluons within the kinematics of high-energy scattering. We show that it is…

In a previous paper a new approach has been introduced for computing, recursively and numerically, one-loop tensor integrals. Here we describe a few modifications of the original method that allow a more efficient numerical implementation…

Multi-loop superstring amplitude are calculated in the convenient gauge where Grassmann moduli are carried by the 2D gravitino field. Generally, instead of the modular symmetry, the amplitudes hold the symmetry under modular transformations…

The success of the experimental program at the Tevatron re-inforced the idea that precision physics at hadron colliders is desirable and, indeed, possible. The Tevatron data strongly suggests that one-loop computations in QCD describe hard…

We compute the next-to-maximally-helicity-violating one-loop n-gluon amplitudes in N=1 super-Yang-Mills theory. These amplitudes contain three negative-helicity gluons and an arbitrary number of positive-helicity gluons, and constitute the…

We consider a Higgs boson coupled to gluons via the five-dimensional effective operator H tr G_{\mu\nu}G^{\mu\nu}. We treat H as the real part of a complex field phi that couples to the selfdual gluon field strengths and compute the…

The recently developed on-shell bootstrap for computing one-loop amplitudes in non-supersymmetric theories such as QCD combines the unitarity method with loop-level on-shell recursion. For generic helicity configurations, the recursion…

We calculate the one-loop QCD virtual corrections to all helicity amplitudes for parton level virtual Compton scattering processes. We include the amplitudes both on quark target process $\gamma^* q\to\gamma q$ and on gluon target process…

A study of the colour-ordered one-loop amplitudes in N=4 SYM reveals a surprising property: numerically, the amplitudes have an Approximately Universal form A^{1-loop}_n ~ A^{tree}_n \times U_n, where U_n is helicity independent. This form…
