In this work, we consider expressions for the masses and decay constants of the pseudoscalar mesons in $SU(3)$ chiral perturbation theory. These involve sunset diagrams and their derivatives evaluated at $p^2=m_P^2$ ($P=\pi, K, \eta$).…
Within the background field approach, all two-loop sunset vacuum diagrams, which occur in the Coulomb branch of N = 2 superconformal theories(including N = 4 SYM), obey the BPS condition m_3 = m_1 + m_2, where the masses are generated by…
In this paper we consider two-loop two-, three- and four-point diagrams with elliptic structure in the case of two different masses $m$ and $M$. The latter diagrams generally arise within NRQCD matching procedures and are relevant for…
