Double-real contribution to the quark beam function at N$^{3}$LO QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-10-24 v3

Abstract

We compute the master integrals required for the calculation of the double-real emission contributions to the matching coefficients of 0-jettiness beam functions at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. As an application, we combine these integrals and derive the double-real gluon emission contribution to the matching coefficient Iqq(t,z)I_{qq}(t,z) of the quark beam function.
