We use multi-parton states to examine the leading order collinear factorization of single transverse-spin asymmetries in Drell-Yan processes. Twist-3 operators are involved in the factorization. We find that the so-called soft-gluon-pole…

We compute the four-quark plus three-gluon and six-quark plus one-gluon tree level amplitudes using on-shell recursion relations. They are needed for the calculation of the 5-jet cross-section at the Born level, and constitute an essential…

In this note we study on-shell tree-level gravity amplitudes in the infinite momentum limit. In the case of the two-line BCFW shift, we have a famous improved behavior at infinity that allows for the amplitude to be reconstructed from the…

Recently it has been shown that in gauge theories amplitudes to any perturbation order can be obtained by glueing together simple three-point on-shell amplitudes. These three-point amplitudes in turn are fixed by locality and Lorentz…

We use the worldline formalism to study tree-level scattering processes involving gravitons. A massless spin 2 particle is described by an $N=4$ supersymmetric worldline action which is also $O(4)$ symmetric. More generally, $N=2S$…
