The three-loop QED mass-dependent contributions to the $g-2$ of each of the charged leptons with two internal closed fermion loops, sometimes called $A^{(6)}_3\left(\frac{m_1}{m_2}, \frac{m_1}{m_3}\right)$ in the $g-2$ literature, is…

We study radiative corrections to third generation scalar fermions into gauge bosons $Z$ and $W^\pm$. We include both SUSY-QCD, QED and full electroweak corrections. It is found that the electroweak corrections can be of the same order as…
We report on recent results on the two-mass corrections for massive operator matrix elements at 2- and 3-loop orders in QCD. These corrections form the building blocks of the variable flavor number scheme. Due to the similar values of the…
