Description
In this talk I will present recent developments on the calculation of five-point scattering amplitudes in massless QCD beyond the leading-colour approximation.
I will discuss the methodology that we pursued to compute these highly non-trivial amplitudes. In this respect, I will argue that it is possible to tackle and tame the seemingly intractable algebraic complexity at each step of the calculation.
I will then illustrate the salient features of the final results and discuss their relevance in view of current and future phenomenological studies at hadron colliders.
