Automatic Generation of Tree Level Helicity Amplitudes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The program MadGraph is presented which automatically generates postscript Feynman diagrams and Fortran code to calculate arbitrary tree level helicity amplitudes by calling HELAS[1] subroutines. The program is written in Fortran and is available in Unix and VMS versions. MadGraph currently includes standard model interactions of QCD and QFD, but is easily modi ed to include additional models such as supersymmetry.

HELICITY AND PLANAR AMPLITUDES IN PION-PROTON SCATTERING AT 6.0 GeV/c
In addition to optimal conditions, invariant laws of Lorentz, parity and time reversal are imposed to find the relation between observables (spin rotation parameters) and bilinear combination of helicity amplitudes in pion-proton elastic scattering at 6.0 GeV/c. By normalizing the differential cross-section to unity, the magnitudes of helicity amplitudes and the angle between them are dete...
متن کاملAll Split Helicity Tree-Level Gluon Amplitudes
Recently a new recursion relation for tree-level gluon amplitudes in gauge theory has been discovered. We solve this recursion to obtain explicit formulas for the closed set of amplitudes with arbitrarily many positive and negative helicity gluons in a split helicity configuration. The solution admits a simple diagrammatic expansion in terms of ‘zigzag’ diagrams. We comment on generalizations o...
متن کاملLight-by-light scattering amplitudes from generalized unitarity in massive QED
We calculate all the four-photon helicity amplitudes at the one-loop level in a massive theory using multiple-cut methods. The amplitudes are derived in scalar QED, QED and QED theories. We will see the origin of rational terms. We extend the calculation to the simplest six-photon helicity amplitude where all photons have the same helicity.

متن کاملAn Infinite Set of Tree Amplitudes in Higgs-yang-mills
It is pointed out that the Parke-Taylor or maximally helicity violating amplitudes in the pure Yang-Mills can, after some specifications, be interpreted as amplitudes of scattering of massive vector bosons in the Higgs-Yang-Mills system. Although, in general, multi-particle tree amplitudes are complicated things (because the number of various Feynman diagrams grows very fast with the number of ...
