Two-loop $gg\to AA$ amplitudes near threshold and the double parton scattering singularity
The two-loop amplitudes for pseudoscalar pair production in gluon fusion, $gg\to AA$, with each pseudoscalar emitted from its own effective gluon vertex, are known in closed form, but large cancellations near threshold obscure their analytic structure. We expand the IR-finite amplitudes in the pseudoscalar velocity $\b...
