I describe a method for determining the coefficients of scalar integrals for one-loop amplitudes in quantum field theory. The method is based upon generalized unitarity and the behavior of amplitudes when the free parameters of the cut momenta approach infinity. The method works for arbitrary masses of both external and internal legs of the amplitudes. It therefore applies not only to QCD but also to the Electroweak theory and to quantum field theory in general.
We show that one-loop amplitudes in massless gauge theories can be determined from single cuts. By cutting a single propagator and putting it on-shell, the integrand of an n-point one-loop integral is transformed into an (n+2)-particle tree level amp
Recent progress in unitarity techniques for one-loop scattering amplitudes makes a numerical implementation of this method possible. We present a 4-dimensional unitarity method for calculating the cut-constructible part of amplitudes and implement th
We explain how one-loop amplitudes with massive fermions can be computed using only on-shell information. We first use the spinor-helicity formalism in six dimensions to perform generalised unitarity cuts in $d$ dimensions. We then show that divergen
For loop integrals, the standard method is reduction. A well-known reduction method for one-loop integrals is the Passarino-Veltman reduction. Inspired by the recent paper [1] where the tadpole reduction coefficients have been solved, in this paper w
We compute a complete set of independent leading-color two-loop five-parton amplitudes in QCD. These constitute a fundamental ingredient for the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to three-jet production at hadron colliders. We show how to
