Abstract

The tree-level amplitudes in β\beta-deformed theory are studied from twistor string theory. We first show that a simple generalization of the proposal in hep-th/0410122 gives the correct results for all of the tree-level amplitudes to the first order of the deformation parameter β\beta. Then we give a proposal to all orders of β\beta and show this matches the field theory. We also show the prescription using connected instantons and the prescription using disconnected instantons are equivalent in the deformed twistor string theory. The tree-level amplitudes in non-supersymmetric γ\gamma-deformed theory are also obtained in this framework. The tree-level purely gluonic amplitudes in theories with generic marginal deformations are also discussed in the twistor string theory side.
