We present an analytic computation of the two-loop QCD corrections to $u\bar{d}\to W^+b\bar{b}$ for an on-shell $W$-boson using the leading colour and massless bottom quark approximations. We perform an integration-by-parts reduction of the…

We study two-loop corrections to the scattering amplitude of four massive leptons in quantum electrodynamics. These amplitudes involve previously unknown elliptic Feynman integrals, which we compute analytically using the differential…

We solve the integration-by-parts (IBP) identities needed for the computation of any planar two-loop five-point massless amplitude in QCD. We also derive some new results for the most complicated non-planar topology with irreducible…
