We calculate the NNLO QED corrections to the $C$-even part of differential cross section of $e^+e^- \to \mu^+\mu^-$ process. We neglect power corrections in the electron mass and obtain the result in terms of Goncharov's polylogarithms.
This is the second one of a series of four papers devoted to a first calculation of the scalar and spinor QED four-photon amplitudes completely off-shell. We use the worldline formalism which provides a gauge-invariant decomposition for…
