QED vertex form factors at two loops

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

We present the closed analytic expression of the form factors of the two-loop QED vertex amplitude for on-shell electrons of finite mass mm and arbitrary momentum transfer S=Q2S=-Q^2. The calculation is carried out within the continuous DD-dimensional regularization scheme, with a single continuous parameter DD, the dimension of the space-time, which regularizes at the same time UltraViolet (UV) and InfraRed (IR) divergences. The results are expressed in terms of 1-dimensional harmonic polylogarithms of maximum weight 4.
