QUANTUM MHV DIAGRAMS

摘要

Over the past two years, the use of on-shell techniques has deepened our understandingof the S-matrix of gauge theories and led to the calculation of many new scattering amplitudes. In these notes we review a particular on-shell technique developed recently, the quantum MHV diagrams, and discuss applications to one-loop amplitudes. Furthermore, we briefly discuss the application of D-dimensional generalised unitarity to the calculation of scattering amplitudes in non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills.
