Direct Extraction Of One Loop Rational Terms
read the original abstract
We present a method for the direct extraction of rational contributions to one-loop scattering amplitudes, missed by standard four-dimensional unitarity techniques. We use generalised unitarity in $D=4-2\e$ dimensions to write the loop amplitudes in terms of products of massive tree amplitudes. We find that the rational terms in $4-2\e$ dimensions can be determined from quadruple, triple and double cuts without the need for independent pentagon contributions using a massive integral basis. The additional mass-dependent integral coefficients may then be extracted from the large mass limit which can be performed analytically or numerically. We check the method by computing the rational parts of all gluon helicity amplitudes with up to six external legs. We also present a simple application to amplitudes with external massless fermions.

An adaptive inverse-problem framework for one-loop five-gluon BCJ numerators
The complete 207-dimensional family of one-loop five-gluon BCJ numerator coefficients is reconstructed exactly, and every direction in that family is shown to be invisible to the specified color-ring observable.
