Recent progress for five-particle two-loop scattering amplitudes with an off-shell leg

Abstract

We report on the advances in the calculation of the two-loop scattering amplitudes for five-particle processes with one off-shell leg. Focusing on the production of a Higgs boson in association with a bottom quark pair, we outline how the newly developed technology allows us to overcome the computational bottlenecks. In particular, we discuss the use of finite field arithmetic and elucidate a convenient way to evaluate numerically the special functions appearing in the amplitudes.
