We show that 4-point vector boson one-loop amplitudes, computed in ref.[1] in the RNS formalism, around vacuum configurations with open unoriented strings, preserving at least N=1 SUSY in D=4, satisfy the correct supersymmetry Ward identities, in that they vanish for non MHV configurations (++++) and (-+++). In the MHV case (--++) we drastically simplify their expressions. We then study factorisation and the limiting IR and UV behaviour and find some unexpected results. In particular no massless poles are exposed at generic values of the modular parameter. Relying on the supersymmetric properties of our bosonic amplitudes, we extend them to manifestly supersymmetric super-amplitudes and compare our results with those obtained in the D=4 hybrid formalism, pointing out difficulties in reconciling the two approaches for contributions from N=1,2 sectors.

  1. One-loop open-string integrals from differential equations: all-order alpha'-expansions at n points

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A-cycle integrals at genus one satisfy linear differential equations whose Picard iterations yield all-order alpha-prime expansions in iterated Eisenstein integrals, with cusp values given by disk integrals.
