In physics, a tree diagram is a Feynman diagram with no non-contractible "circles" in it. It corresponds to the results obtained from classical physics in which the effects of quantum mechanics are ignored. One does not need to perform any integrals to calculate a tree diagram.

The full result for the physical quantity must however include one-loop Feynman diagrams and also more complicated diagrams.
