Abstract
I will introduce the new OpenLoops release “OpenLoops2”, a fully automated algorithm for extreme one-loop computations. This new release features public process libraries for complete one-loop corrections in the SM using a new helicity treatment and a new reduction method for tree-loop interferences. The simplicity and flexibility of the so-called on-the-fly reduction allows to isolate numerical instabilities in the amplitude for critical phase-space regions. I will address in detail sources of numerical instabilities in hard and infrared regions in the before mentioned framework and present analytic and numerical methods to cure them. Finally, I will present performance and stability benchmarks and compare with other state-of-the art reduction methods.
