Two-loop scattering amplitudes from ambitwistor strings: from genus two to the nodal Riemann sphere

Abstract We derive from ambitwistor strings new formulae for two-loop scattering amplitudes in supergravity and super-Yang-Mills theory, with any number of particles. We start by constructing a formula for the type II ambitwistor string amplitudes on a genus-two Riemann surface, and then study the l...
