Anthropic says Claude can compute notoriously hard Nine Loops physics amplitudes
daniel_mac8 · x · 2026-09-26
Anthropic's new science blog post showcases Claude tackling "Nine Loops" scattering amplitude calculations.
- Scattering amplitudes are notoriously hard formulas used to predict particle behavior
- Researchers work with layers of "loop" corrections, each adding precision but exponentially more computation; most work stops at two or three loops
- The post highlights Claude's progress on high-order physics computation
