چکیده
A bstract We present a complete set of analytic helicity amplitudes for top quark pair production via gluon fusion at two-loops in QCD. For the first time, we include corrections due to massive fermion loops which give rise integrals over elliptic curves. results missing master needed compute amplitude and obtain an form finite remainders terms iterated using rationalised kinematics field sampling. also study numerical evaluation integrals.

Two-Loop Leading Color Corrections to Heavy-Quark Pair Production in the Gluon Fusion Channel
We evaluate the two-loop QCD diagrams contributing to the leading color coefficient of the heavy-quark pair production cross section in the gluon fusion channel. We obtain an analytic expression, which is valid for any value of the Mandelstam invariants s and t and of the heavy-quark mass m. Our findings agree with previous analytic results in the small-mass limit and with recent results for th...
متن کاملTwo-loop QCD helicity amplitudes for massless quark-quark scattering
We present the two-loop helicity amplitudes for the scattering of massless quarks in QCD. We use projector techniques to compute the coefficients of the general four-quark amplitude at up to two-loops in conventional dimensional regularisation and use these coefficients to derive the helicity amplitudes in the ’t Hooft-Veltman scheme. The structure of the infrared divergences agrees with that p...
متن کاملTwo-loop helicity amplitudes for the production of two off-shell electroweak bosons in gluon fusion
We compute the part of the two-loop virtual amplitude for the process gg → V1V2 → (l1 l̄ ′ 1)(l2 l̄ ′ 2), where V1,2 are arbitrary electroweak gauge bosons, that receives contributions from loops of massless quarks. Invariant masses of electroweak bosons are allowed to be different from each other. Our result provides an important ingredient for improving the description of gluon fusion contribut...
متن کاملTwo-Loop Helicity Amplitudes for Quark-Gluon Scattering in QCD and Gluino-Gluon Scattering in Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
We present the two-loop QCD helicity amplitudes for quark-gluon scattering, and for quark-antiquark annihilation into two gluons. These amplitudes are relevant for next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to (polarized) jet production at hadron colliders. We give the results in the ‘t Hooft-Veltman and four-dimensional helicity (FDH) variants of dimensional regularization. The transition rules...
