D0C: A code to calculate scalar one-loop four-point integrals with complex masses
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a new Fortran code to calculate the scalar one-loop four-point integral with complex internal masses, based on the method of ’t Hooft and Veltman. The code is applicable when the external momenta fulfill a certain physical condition. In particular it holds if one of the external momenta or a sum of them is timelike or lightlike and therefore covers all physical processes at colliders. All the special cases related to massless external particles are treated separately. Some technical issues related to numerical evaluation and Landau singularities are discussed.

Numerical contour integration for loop integrals
A fully numerical method to calculate loop integrals, a numerical contour-integration method, is proposed. Loop integrals can be interpreted as a contour integral in a complex plane for an integrand with multi-poles in the plane. Stable and efficient numerical integrations an along appropriate contour can be performed for tensor integrals as well as for scalar ones appearing in loop calculation...
متن کاملGolem95C: A library for one-loop integrals with complex masses
We present a program for the numerical evaluation of scalar integrals and tensor form factors entering the calculation of one-loop amplitudes which supports the use of complex masses in the loop integrals. The program is built on an earlier version of the golem95 library, which performs the reduction to a certain set of basis integrals using a formalism where inverse Gram determinants can be av...

We present the library Collier for the numerical evaluation of one-loop scalar and tensor integrals in perturbative relativistic quantum field theories. The code provides numerical results for arbitrary tensor and scalar integrals for scattering processes in general quantum field theories. For tensor integrals either the coefficients in a covariant decomposition or the tensor components themsel...

We apply negative dimensional integration method (NDIM) to three outstanding gauges: Feynman, light-cone and Coulomb gauges. Our aim is to show that NDIM is a very suitable technique to deal with loop integrals, being them originated from any gauge choice. In Feynman gauge we perform scalar two-loop four-point massless integrals; in the light-cone gauge we calculate scalar two-loop integrals co...
متن کاملHigh-Energy Approximation of One-Loop Feynman Integrals
We provide high-energy approximations for all one-loop scalar 3and 4-point functions and the corresponding tensor integrals that appear in scattering processes with four external on-shell particles. Our expressions are valid if all kinematical invariants are much larger than the internal and external masses. They contain all leading-order terms of the integrals. WUE-ITP-96-006 May 1996
