TLDR
In this paper, the authors presented a technique which utilizes unitarity and collinear limits to construct ansatze for one-loop amplitudes in gauge theory, and proved that their $N=4$ ansatz is correct using general properties of the relevant one-loops $n$-point integrals.Abstract:
We present a technique which utilizes unitarity and collinear limits to construct ansatze for one-loop amplitudes in gauge theory. As an example, we obtain the one-loop contribution to amplitudes for $n$ gluon scattering in $N=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with the helicity configuration of the Parke-Taylor tree amplitudes. We prove that our $N=4$ ansatz is correct using general properties of the relevant one-loop $n$-point integrals. We also give the ``splitting amplitudes'' which govern the collinear behavior of one-loop helicity amplitudes in gauge theories.read more

On the low-energy limit of one-loop photon–graviton amplitudes

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of the low energy limit of the one-loop photon-graviton amplitudes induced by massive scalars and spinors was studied and the main objective was the search of KLT-type relations where effectively two photons merge into a graviton.

Classical potential for general spinning bodies
TL;DR: In this paper, the spin-dependent terms of the gravitational potential for general spinning bodies at the leading Newton's constant $G$ and to all orders in spin were computed using the on-shell approach, which extracts the classical potential directly from the scattering amplitude.

Zvi Bern,David A. Kosower +1 more
TL;DR: The outline of a new and efficient technique for the calculation of loop amplitudes in a gauge theory based on the technology of four-dimensional heterotic strings is presented, which finds complete agreement with the previous Feynman-diagram calculation of Ellis and Sexton.
