We present analytic results for one of two types of planar QED two-loop integrals for $\mu e$ scattering including finite lepton masses. No approximations are made, such that the results are valid not only in the limit of a small electron…

We calculate the universal radiative QED corrections to polarized lepton scattering for general scattering cross sections in analytic form. The flavor non--singlet and singlet radiation functions are calculated to $O((\alpha {\rm L})^5)$.…
