The calculation of the two-loop corrections to the three jet production rate and to event shapes in electron-positron annihilation requires the computation of a number of up to now unknown two-loop four-point master integrals with one…
The calculation of the two-loop corrections to the three-jet production rate and to event shapes in electron--positron annihilation requires the computation of a number of two-loop four-point master integrals with one off-shell and three…
We evaluate the phase-space integrals that arise in double real emission diagrams for semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD. Utilizing the reverse unitarity technique, we convert these…
We report next-to-leading order perturbative QCD predictions of 4 jet event shape variables for the process e+e- \to 4 jets obtained using the general purpose Monte Carlo EERAD2. This program is based on the known `squared' one loop matrix…
One-loop integrands can be written in terms of a simple, process-independent basis. We show that a similar basis exists for integrands of phase-space integrals for the real-emission contribution at next-to-leading order. Our demonstration…
In a series of papers we have developed the method of iterated sector decomposition for the calculation of infrared divergent multi-loop integrals. Here we apply it to phase space integrals to calculate a contribution to the double real…
We compute all master integrals for massless three-loop four-particle scattering amplitudes required for processes like di-jet or di-photon production at the LHC. We present our result in terms of a Laurent expansion of the integrals in the…
The three-loop form factors in massless QCD can be expressed as a linear combination of master integrals. Besides a number of master integrals which factorise into products of one-loop and two-loop integrals, one finds 16 genuine three-loop…
We present in detail a calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the process $e^+e^-\to 3$ jets with massive quarks. To isolate the soft and collinear divergencies of the four parton matrix elements, we modify the phase…
We compute the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ virtual QCD corrections to the $\gamma^*\to q\bar q g$ matrix element arising from the interference of the two-loop with the tree-level amplitude and from the self-interference of the one-loop…
We investigate the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) corrections to hadronic final states in electron-positron collisions at $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^3)$ in the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$. Namely, we analytically compute the total cross…
We perform the integration of all iterated singly-unresolved subtraction terms, as defined in ref. [1], over the two-particle factorized phase space. We also sum over the unresolved parton flavours. The final result can be written as a…
Subtraction schemes provide a systematic way to compute fully-differential cross sections beyond the leading order in the strong coupling constant. These methods make singular real-emission corrections integrable in phase space by the…
We give technical details about the computational strategy employed in a recently completed investigation of the four-loop QCD free energy. In particular, the reduction step from generic vacuum bubbles to master integrals is described from…
Ordered momentum mappings present optimal convergence in soft and collinear configurations and are particularly suitable for the numerical implementation of local subtraction schemes. However, ordered mappings cannot be directly applied in…
We present the analytic calculation of all master integrals for 3-, 4-, and 5-particle semi-inclusive cuts of four-loop massless propagators by means of differential equations. We fix the integration constants by reducing the semi-inclusive…
A method for calculating phase-space master integrals for the decay process $1 \to n$ massless partons in QCD using integration-by-parts and differential equations techniques is discussed. The method is based on the appropriate choice of…
We review the current status of perturbative corrections in QCD at four loops for scattering processes with space- and time-like kinematics at colliders, with specific focus on deep-inelastic scattering and electron-positron annihilation.…
