abstract
We present a C++ library for the numerical evaluation of one-loop virtual corrections to multi-jet production in massless QCD. The pure gluon primitive amplitudes are evaluated using NGluon. A generalized unitarity reduction algorithm is used to construct arbitrary multiplicity fermion-gluon primitive amplitudes. From these basic building blocks the one-loop contribution to the squared matrix element, summed over colour and helicities, is calculated. No approximation in colour is performed. While the primitive amplitudes are given for arbitrary multiplicities we provide the squared matrix elements only for up to 7 external partons allowing the evaluation of the five jet cross section at next-to-leading order accuracy. The library has been recently successfully applied to four jet production at next-to-leading order in QCD.
