Claude Achieves Nine Loops in Scattering Amplitude Calculation

Key Info

Claude computed nine-loop scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory, breaking the previous eight-loop record set by physicists at SLAC.

Highlights

• Claude pushed past the eight-loop barrier in a simplified model used to test scattering amplitude calculations.
• This achievement demonstrates AI's potential in advanced theoretical physics.
• The result was published on Anthropic's Science Blog.
