Closed-Form Decomposition of One-Loop Massive Amplitudes

Britto, Ruth, Feng, Bo, Mastrolia, Pierpaolo

Understand

We present formulas for the coefficients of 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-point master integrals for one-loop massive amplitudes.

  • The coefficients are derived from unitarity cuts in D dimensions.
  • The input parameters can be read off from any unitarity-cut integrand, as assembled from tree-level expressions, after simple algebraic manipulations.
  • The formulas presented here are suitable for analytical as well as numerical evaluation.
