  • We study scattering amplitudes and form factors in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory in the limit where two pairs of gluons become collinear. We find that, when the virtualities of both collinear pairs are spacelike, the collinear factorisation of the amplitude involves a generalised splitting amplitude that correlates the two collinear directions, confirming a recent proposal in the literature. Remarkably, we find that our generalised splitting amplitude agrees with the Bern-Dixon-Smirnov (BDS) subtracted six-point amplitude in multi-Regge kinematics. The latter can be explicitly evaluated using integrability to all orders in the coupling. We also present compelling evidence for the universality of the generalised splitting amplitude, by showing that the same function governs the double spacelike collinear limit of scattering amplitudes with up to 8 particles and 3 loops and form factors with up to 6 particles and 2 loops.
