The one-loop amplitude for six-gluon scattering
We present results for the six-gluon scattering amplitude at one-loop. Since our method is semi-numerical, it yields the result for arbitrary momenta and helicities of the external gluons. We evaluate the colour-ordered sub-amplitudes with gluons, fermions and scalars running in the internal loop. T...

description | We present results for the six-gluon scattering amplitude at one-loop. Since our method is semi-numerical, it yields the result for arbitrary momenta and helicities of the external gluons. We evaluate the colour-ordered sub-amplitudes with gluons, fermions and scalars running in the internal loop. This is more than sufficient to give a complete description of six-gluon scattering at one-loop in QCD. Combination of these results into amplitudes with N = 4 and N = 1 multiplets of supersymmetric Yang-Mills or with a complex scalar in the internal loops allows comparison with analytic results in the literature. The numerical results for most of the helicity combinations with loops of complex scalars are new. |
