چکیده

The three-loop form factors in massless QCD can be expressed as a linear combination of master integrals. Besides a number of master integrals which factorise into products of one-loop and two-loop integrals, one finds 16 genuine three-loop integrals. Of these, six have the form of a bubble insertion inside a one-loop or two-loop vertex integral. We compute all master integrals with these insertion topologies.

Master Integrals for Fermionic Contributions to Massless Three-Loop Form Factors

In this letter we continue the calculation of master integrals for massless three-loop form factors by giving analytical results for those integrals which are relevant for the fermionic contributions proportional toN F , NF ·N , andNF /N . Working in dimensional regularisation, we express one of the integrals in a closed form which is exact to all orders in ǫ, containing Γ-functions and hyperge...

Nine-Propagator Master Integrals for Massless Three-Loop Form Factors

We complete the calculation of master integrals for massless three-loop form factors by computing the previously-unknown three diagrams with nine propagators in dimensional regularisation. Each of the integrals yields a six-fold Mellin-Barnes representation which we use to compute the coefficients of the Laurent expansion in ǫ. Using Riemann ζ functions of up to weight six, we give fully analyt...

Master Integrals For Massless Two-Loop Vertex Diagrams With Three Offshell Legs

We compute the master integrals for massless two-loop vertex graphs with three offshell legs. These master integrals are relevant for the QCD corrections to H → V V ∗ (where V = W , Z) and for two-loop studies of the triple gluon (and quark-gluon) vertex. We employ the differential equation technique to provide series expansions in ǫ for the various master integrals. The results are analytic an...

Three-loop results in HQET

Two-loop HQET propagator diagrams were reduced [1] to two master integrals, using integration by parts [2] identities. There are 10 generic topologies of three-loop HQET propagator diagrams (Fig. 1). They can be reduced [3], using integration by parts relations, to 8 master integrals (Fig. 2). The algorithm has been constructed by hand, and implemented as a REDUCE package Grinder [3]. It is ana...

Two-Loop Quark and Gluon Form Factors in Dimensional Regularisation

We compute the two-loop corrections to the massless quark form factor γ∗ → qq̄ and gluon form factor H → gg to all orders in the dimensional regularisation parameter ǫ = (4− d)/2. The two-loop contributions to the form factors are reduced to linear combinations of master integrals, which are computed in a closed form, expressed as Γ-functions and generalised hypergeometric functions of unit argu...
