    Next-to-Maximal Helicity Violating Amplitudes in Gauge Theory

    Full text link
    Using the novel diagrammatic rules recently proposed by Cachazo, Svrcek, and Witten, I give a compact, manifestly Lorentz-invariant form for tree-level gauge-theory amplitudes with three opposite helicities.Comment: 12 pages, 1 figur

    Supersymmetry Relations Between Contributions To One-Loop Gauge Boson Amplitudes

    Full text link
    We apply ideas motivated by string theory to improve the calculational efficiency of one-loop weak interaction processes with massive external gauge bosons. In certain cases ``supersymmetry'' relations between diagrams with a fermion loop and with a gauge boson loop hold. This is explicitly illustrated for a particular one-loop standard model process with four-external gauge bosons. The supersymmetry relations can be used to provide further significant improvements in calculational efficiency.Comment: 21 pages of plain TeX + 5 PostScript figures (compressed and uuencoded), UCLA/93/TEP/36 and DTP/93/8
