Event details

Abstract: I will present the first numerical computation of two-loop amplitudes based on the unitarity method. During this presentation, I will focus on the organisation of the calculation in a form that is suitable for the unitarity method, taking the four-gluon process as an example. This procedure applies more generally to two-loop computations of phenomenologically relevant signatures at hadron colliders.
