We calculate the two-loop QCD mixing of the dimension-five flavor-changing operators that arise in the Standard Model after integrating out the $W$, $Z$ and Higgs bosons and the top-quark, i.e.~the mixing among gluonic and photonic magnetic…
QCD in $d=4-2\epsilon$ space-time dimensions possesses a nontrivial critical point. Scale invariance usually implies conformal symmetry so that there are good reasons to expect that QCD at the critical point restricted to the gauge…
Relating the high-energy dipole description of deep-inelastic scattering to the standard light-ray operator formulation at finite Bjorken $x_B$ is essential for connecting the small-$x$ framework to the usual partonic description. I…

The soft radiation emitted in jet cross sections can resolve the directions and colors of individual hard partons, leading to a complicated pattern of logarithmically enhanced terms in the perturbative series. Starting from a factorization…
We analytically compute the four-loop QCD corrections for the colour structure $(d_F^{abcd})^2$ to the massless non-singlet quark form factor. The computation involves non-trivial non-planar integral families which have master integrals in…
