We reduce all the most complicated Feynman integrals in two-loop five-light-parton scattering amplitudes to basic master integrals, while other integrals can be reduced even easier. Our results are expressed as systems of linear relations…
The vacuum polarization due to a virtual heavy quark pair and specifically the coefficients of its Taylor expansion in the external momentum are closely related to moments of the cross section for quark-antiquark pair production in…
A physically defined effective charge can incorporate quark masses analytically at the flavor thresholds. Therefore, no matching conditions are required for the evolution of the strong coupling constant through these thresholds. In this…

We present the analytic expressions of the three-loop virtual corrections to the helicity amplitudes of 2 -> 2 four-fermion scattering processes in massless QED. The contributing Feynman diagrams are grouped into integrand families…
We calculate the full set of the two-loop master integrals for heavy-to-light form factors of two different massive fermions for arbitrary momentum transfer in NNLO QCD or QED corrections. These integrals allow to determine the two-loop QCD…
It had been known that the Borel transforms of the twice quark pole mass 2*mq and of the QCD q-barq static potential V(r) have leading infrared renormalons at b=1/2 such that they cancel in the sum. The renormalon residue of 2*mq had been…
The spin-dependent corrections to the static interquark potential are relevant to describing the fine and hyper-fine splittings of the heavy quarkonium spectra. We investigate these corrections in SU(3) lattice gauge theory with the…
